Given there’s a thread which includes adding £4k+ of options to a Skoda, I can’t see this being at all true. As said above, it’s in their interests, especially for those cars that are quite basic as standard, that these additional packs will add much value at the end of the lease, with no extra outlay from Motability, I can’t see why they’d not encourage you to do whatever was on the list.
There is a difference between options from factory and aftermarket upgrades though, they are definitely anti after market upgrades as often they’ll detract from value or could cause damage within the lease period.
I'm Autistic, if I say something you find offensive, please let me know, I can guarantee it was unintentional.
I'll try to give my honest opinion but am always open to learning.
