Just received an email telling me I can order a new car 2 weeks early. Was due to order on the 28th June they say I can order from the 13th June. So that it is all sorted before the 1st July.

That’s decent of them 👍
Far away is near at hand in visions of elsewhere.

That is going to help out no end as I have wall to wall hospital appointments and procedures throughout June.

Nice to have some good news for once! That should take the pressure off a bit. As you say, you can get it all sorted before doomsday!
June 13, 2026 at 2:02 pm #368931I went today and ordered a VW Tiguan Black edition, DSG Diesel. nothing on online account to say I could order early. It was on the system in the showroom to say I could order from today. Probably the last diesel car I will ever get. Arrived home and had an email thanking me for ordering.
Told me they are currently taking about 3/4 months to arrive which suits as I can not collect until the end of September. At least all done on the current terms before the July changes appear.
June 16, 2026 at 9:59 am #369767My online account still shows the original renewal date, not the revised date of 13th June. As I will driving nearly 100 miles to sort out the car, is there anyway I can establish the dealer has the 13th June on their records without me being there in person?

So does mine, but when I went on Saturday he asked for NI number and DOB and it was on the Motability system. By the time I was home I had application received, application approved and my pin. Phone whichever dealer first and ask them to confirm it is on the system.
June 17, 2026 at 5:57 pm #369819A lot of people are saying they have just had an email from Motability saying they can have short term extension like 9 months

That keeps them on, until the new terms on 1st July

Indeed. A clever move on Motability’s behalf that people who accept it may live to regret. When I asked Direct Line for my driver record last week they told me that they are dealing with “thousands” of people who are looking to leave the scheme!
