      hi first time poster, i was wondering if somebody could clarify something for me, if i extend the lease of my motability car after 3 years, could i still ask for a purchase price to buy the car outright?, i was told that i could ask for a purchase price sometime during the last 3 months of the first lease, but not sure about the extended lease?

        In order to extend the lease to 5 years the vehicle has to have substantial modifications or have less than 20,000 miles otherwise they only allow a 6 month extension.

        Having said that there are folks on here who have not met that criteria and after speaking to Mota have been able to secure a 2 year extension based on their specific circumstances but it’s by no means guaranteed!

        As for getting a purchase price, that will not be happening as Motability have changed their policy and no longer allow scheme members to purchase their vehicle at any point.

            was this a recent change policy? 🙁

                Relatively recent but done very silently and applied to all leases whether they be live or the customer not yet collected. Its rubbish and I hope it changes as I am enjoying my new car and would definitely consider purchasing after the lease.
