Yes, as WMC says, a lot of Motability dealers use the terms ‘offer’ or ‘deal’ or ‘special’ etc on their websites when in fact their ‘offer’, ‘deal’ or ‘special’ is in fact the normal Motability book price, dressed up to make it look like a special offer. Total ‘click bait’.
When I run my little algorithm that searches for offers and deals on Motability, it is surprising the number of dealers who do this ‘trick’ and it is infuriating. Certain chain franchises are quite prolific at it.
Before posting offers in the deals and offers thread, I check that it is a genuine ‘money off’ or cashback deal and that it is current. As another trick they do is leave their former genuine offer pages ‘live’, so a search picks them up but in fact the offer has expired (or in at least one case, never existed at all). However, some may be useful, as they can sometimes be used as a lever – by the customer saying ‘’you were offering so and so last quarter, can you match it this quarter’’? Nothing ventured etc….
The only potentially current Motorline offer I can find is the ‘claim upto £250cashback on Audi’ – T&C’s apply – the only problem is the T&C’s are nowhere to be found on their website, nor any associated offer dates (it has been on their website for a few quarters). Plus, being an ‘upto’ offer it could mean they give 50p off the model you want:
They did have in the recent past the general ‘Hyundai Ioniq £1099 off the AP’ offer that was running almost everywhere in Q3 2020 but I haven’t found any other offers or deals from them.
