    Also (not sure if this would be the right thread, sorry if it isn’t):

    Why are so few few cars with a large enough boot for two wheelchairs and walking aids WITH 4×4 available?

    When the the Q3 became available again (we had one on Motability before) we thought we are on a winner, just to be bitterly disappointed when we got told by AUDI UK (management) to buy our Q3 in the eye watering “Vorsprung” equipment level privately, since electric seats ARE ONLY AVAILABLE WITH LOTS OF OTHER RUBBISH IN THAT EQUIPMENT LEVEL!

    I had to find out since that not only does Audi offer electric seats here in the UK (on the “Vorsprung” = not available on Motability) AUDI OFFERS ELECTRIC SEATS THROUGHOUT THE Q3 RANGE IN GERMANY FOR AS LITTLE AS 800 EUROS!!!

    electric seats in my case are not a lifestyle choice but an essential God sent, as adjusting seats manually causes me severe discomfort, and if a seat is left forward by another driver I will be unable to get behind the wheel!

    The rather poor choice of rather small Audi’s on Motability (compared with BMW and Volvo for example), and the heartless comments from Audi UK Management makes me wonder why they even bother selling to disabled customers (since Audi does not care for disabled customers and their needs).

    I thought this kind of discrimination was a thing of the past, especially since recent anti disability discrimination legislation in the UK and the EU!
