    I don’t comment that often here but Ive read lots of comment about the good and bad of Motability.its a great scheme and a life line for the disabled but things are getting very worrying for me and my wife who are both wheelchair users.my problem is I don’t think Motability show these dealers that the cars need to cater for lots of different disabilities.we drive estate cars’ so its easy for me to put my wife’s chair in the boot.i usually go for the larger estate,mondeo,passat,skoda superb size but the deposit is sky high and now the mondeo is no longer, my options are Skoda or Passat if there even on the price list.and now I really have no idea what to do other than try going for something much smaller as suv’s are impossible to get in.getting a second hand car seems to be the next option but having hand controls make it a difficult choice.and everything going electric the options of cars is the suv’s seems to be a popular choice but not for us.i think the price cap and bhp cap need to change to offer more choice for everyone.and stuff the daily mail.
