    get another for £500. I ran a £461 Ebay purchase

    I’ve paid more than that for a mobility scooter!!

    Yep, there’s bargains to be had if needs must.

    Ok, you have to take what is on offer and not have a long list of wants (mine was usually large boot  for the wheelchair and before that, a double pushchair and diesel) and know what to look out for to make sure it’s mechanically sound.

    I switched to Motability when my requirements couldn’t be found in the cheap second hand market and the current car was becoming painful and almost impossible to drive due to the deterioration of my health, only the far more expensive and unaffordable 2-5 year age group of cars but we are now more years down the line and those cars are now not too far from the target market.
