@Berty it states or did prior to covid on Mobility website you could have an offsite handover of your new vehicle as long as your dealer agrees as they would need an escort following to take the driver back once delivey has taken place!. This is also the case for WAV’s on the scheme.
An able bodied person can have a home handover of a Rolls Royce and customer pay the same due diligence at their home premises. The same applies to lease companies who often deliver the vehicle with the aid of a 21st century tablet or pda to complete and finaise any paperwork. So whether car costs £30k or £100k makes no difference.
Remeber people have all kinds of disabilities including hidden disabilities that fall unduer the equality act, so disabled are not put at a disadvantage.
The fact Motability allow you to order and to have WAV’s delivered or are you saying those to are able bodied to get to the dealership in a wheelchair, to take handover of their new vehicle and pay due diligence.
Apart from my daughter’s physical dsability, she is also massively on the spectrum anf I can fully understand where Dave is coming from. If I’m not mistaken it was initially agreed for Dave to have an offsite handover!
