    Can’t say it’s not fit for purpose. Looking at cars from NIL to 500, there are frontiera, capri, dacia spring, peuguot 2008, Kona, Nero, Ford Explorer. All very good cars. Mobility is a lifeline, it’s not a trifling organisation.

    With Ford you miss out on HUD, Active Park Assist, 360-Degree Parking Camera and Hands-free Power-operated Tailgate, with the latter two being top of list for disabled drivers.

    What did the customers do for the past 20-30 years without HUD, power tailgate (mobility screwed a strop to the tailgate). No 360 deg or parking cameras??? They got on with it.

    Playing devil’s advocate here, as all of the above items are not a luxury, but a huge increase in safety. They really should standard on every vehicle. But these are nearly obsolete with the level 4 Chinese self driving cars coming on stream.

    But still, there is a good choice of entry level cars at nil to low AP.
