I’m not saying this is a bad thing, not at all. But, there are Motability customers struggling with AP’s. Motability’s standard response is to apply for a grant, but not everyone is entitled to a grant. Some people have savings which exclude them from financial help, but they may not wish to use their savings on AP’s.

Did you see the test they did on Fifth Gear Recharged? They took it around a track and nearly rolled it over.

Many of the cars on the scheme were above the £32k limit, so hopefully we will not see prices rising. If the government is going to put money into better charging infrastructure then that is to be welcomed, just don’t have a huge amount of faith in Boris and Co at the moment!Agree regarding investment in charging, if charging infrastructure improves, we could opt for a cheaper car with smaller battery. I posted a couple of days ago about a journey to Cornwall and how there are the same amount of chargers at Frankley Services today as there were 4 years ago. That’s putting us off getting an EV.

Wonder how quick Motability will adjust the AP’s. They’re probably furiously working on it as we speak.

I think a lot of people rely on the GCB for their advance payment, even though it comes after your new car is collected. We usually think £1000-£1500 on AP and anticipate getting some back in the form of GCB. I think it should stay at the ends of the lease, that said; it doesn’t stop Motability giving a one off bonus to help people with the cost of fuelling they’re cars.
