    Kezo, I am surprised at you, I thought you had more experience than to make a statement like that. .

    Are you seriously trying to tell us that Motability or a dealer or a private sale is ever going to (ask) get as much for your 42,000 mile car or a 60,000 miles car (all other things being equal) as Motability, a dealer or a private sale is going to get back on a car that has only done 12,000 miles, so how could millage possibly, not be a factor in my point and Motability’s resale value and profit.

    I think you are putting up a point of view coming from someone that does 42,000 miles and had good use wearing out the parts rather than some more disabled or/and less mobile person who has only been able to get the 12,000 use out of their car, which beyond doubt Motability will get a better return on.

    I am not knocking anybody who is able to use their car to their benefit and get as many miles out of it, in fact that is great and what it is there for, but please don’t try and tell us it will be as profitable to Motability reselling it as the person’s car, who does much less mileage such as 12,000 miles, (all other things being equal) and consequently gets less value and use from their car.

    Remember, millage consideration was only part of my point and suggestion. I will be interested to hear from more people and it would be helpful and relevant to hear what milage other contributors do per year, to put the suggestion into perspective.
