Hi, so the restrictions on ordering came up before the dealer put any of your details in? It could be the manufacturer has put restrictions on that particular trim,due to long delays, the dealership group has placed on that partivular model or the computer link has a problem etc etc. Are there any other Ford dealers within eady reach of you, you could visit and try and place an order. You can then revert back to your local dealer for servicing etc. Are there any other cars that take your fancy?
the restriction came up as soon as the dealer clicked “new application”. None of my details or the car details had been entered. The next nearest Ford dealer is at least half an hour away and I need my husband with me to order so that means I have to leave my autistic daughter with my 15 year old so is a lot more hassle. I like the Honda CRV (but can’t afford the £7k upfront payment) and the Toyota Rav 4 (which is no longer on the scheme )
We have the Suzuki Across on the Mobility scheme it is an excellent vehicle, however we paid the upfront AP £6999 as we tow an caravan and most importantly intended to extend the lease to 5 years, unfortunately even with low mileage. I very much doubt they Mobility Operations will allow us to extend the lease the further 24 month, yes we feel a bit mislead, £6999 for a 3 year lease no chance, the scheme seems to be falling apart at the seams, if they lose the VAT exemption well that another nail in the coffin.
Unfortunately I have suffered a brain injury and occasionally I get confused and often say the wrong thing.
