    Personal I don’t think there is enough choice of SUV’s and since I can only drive auto and cannot have a diesel the AP prices are out of my reach. I can only get into a tall  SUV due to spinal problems, a lot of them have boots which are too small for my scooter or the roof is too low like the new 3008 roof height 1624 mm .

    I will need to apply for a grant this year as the AP prices have increased so much, I have made a list of vehicles with roof heights, boot sizes, images and AP prices, so I am ready for some of the unsuitable suggestions offered to me when applying for a grant. My wife is now disabled has a blue badge and uses a crutch, but she won’t apply for PIP. If she needs a scooter as well  I don’t know what we will do.

    I know autos are more expensive to build but the difference in AP seems excessive e.g. Citroën C5 aircross manual £395 auto £1,895 ?
