The 40 model has been confirmed to stop production in week 44. They will start building the 45 model from then onwards. I have a build week of 48 hence my ordered car will be a 45 model. That’s my reasoning for believing I will get a 45 model. In motabilitys case, the price of the old 40 and new 45 model is the exact same so it shouldnt have any affect on the price they pay. You could say they get a better return since the residuals of the car when i give it back will be higher compared to an older 40 model therefore they’ll make even more profit off of us. Theoretically they should therefore be reducing the advance payment for a 45 model compared to the current 40 prices they have on the scheme but I don’t think any of us know how motability calculate their AP’s.
