Hi. Just came across this forum.
My wife is a member of the Mobility Scheme and she has asked me to do some research around purchasing the vehicle at the end of her current lease. So I’m hoping someone will be able to give me some thoughts.
Firstly we have another year to go on the (extended to 5 yrs) lease before we hand the vehicle back and my wife has expressed her desire to continue with the scheme to get another vehicle. That said, when we originally leased the vehicle (Ford Kuga) we loaded it with a few extras that cost us quite a bit (I’m not sure of the amount but I think it was circa £2.5k).
So my questions are really as follows;
1. It was mentioned in an earlier post that Mobility offer the vehicle price based on a Standard spec? Is this correct, and can someone please confirm that?
2. In earlier posts I also saw mention of a 20% discount but I got really confused reading it – So I’d be grateful of a definitive answer on whether that 20% VAT discount is applied?
3. Once the vehicle is purchased, would I be right in saying that it is then ours without restriction? For clarity – our intention would be to purchase it for our our daughter as she needs a bigger car for her children.
May thanks in advance for any answers or thoughts.
