Collected the new car yesterday and while the dealer nipped outside to check my old car was all in order I had an email from Motability saying “Thanks for returning your car in good condition. We now are processing your GCP OF £320”. I had part of the GCP of £350 earlier this year so looks like I’m getting an extra £100 because I had my old car over 4 years waiting delivery of the new car. On the new car payment I have “1 new notification” in my Motability account that says I will get £250 over the next few days and another payment of £500 before the 31st of March.
That surprises me, as I expected them to give you the full £750 new vehicle payment now.
Yes the extra £100 is for having your car over 4ys but under 5 at which time it increase to £250 extra GCB, that will change to good condition payment next for your next car.
