However you did not explain in your response, your original response which stated that “I do not understand why milage is in the equation”
By that, I simply meant, I see no point of mileage being in the equation of discussion, simply because mileage allowance stated within in the contract, will be in excess of what most scheme users will travel with 3yrs.
Of course it must exist within the contract as is excess mileage charge, as it is with other leasing companies
all I am saying is that for Motability Operations who make over a Million pounds a year profit and have over a Billion pounds in profit in the bank (excluding counting their fleet) based on their buying, leasing to Motability customers with their AP’s, and profitable sales on of their members cars, then why can’t that be reflected on and distributed on to each Motability contract with their customer/members and let their customers benefit from them having a low millage, keeping their cars in pristine conation and adding costly optional extra to their cars, which increases the value to Motability selling on the cars, but has no additional financial benefit beyond the basic £250 GCB to their customers, who they were set up in 1977 to provide for.
I think you are looking to deep into what my comment meant to get across. However to answer this, it would mean Motability doing individual contracts, individual AP’s with additional paperwork to that of a blanket one size fits all contract. Who is going to do this paperwork, the dealer and would they want an additional for doing so? The better and easiest way of achieving this would be keeping to a one size fits all contract but, lowering the mileage allowance, to 10,ooo, 15,000 or whatever is deemed appropiate. Those who then exceed “x” limit pay a excess mileage charge. Either way it makes little difference to me due to what I deem a prioity, must every 3 weeks, which has effectively doubled my normal visits and one day my mileage will effectively revert back to around average.
