Hi Sean. I am in a similar position to you, the only difference is that I am looking to go electric. I will wait until October 1st and see what is available and make a shortlist. I will the arrange test drives as soon as I can. For two reasons. First to make sure I am happy with the car and secondly to mitigate the possibility of covid restrictions in the autumn. Once I have decided it will be a question of waiting until late November until I can order but I will keep in regular contact with my chosen dealer to monitor delivery times etc and during this time I will also monitor comings and goings on Motability’s price list. I will then review my decision again on Jan 1st depending on availability at that point. I expect the process to be a little trickier than usual with Covid, shortages, lack of choice and long lead times and if all else fails a lease extension is the fall back position. Hope this is of some help.
