Hi all, What is your opinion of the chr+ ? it seems to get good reviews and it seems well kitted out and a good looking vehicle with decent range. The AP doesn’t seem so bad either.

If it was down to Reform especially if they get into power maybe with the Conservatives the scheme would be WAV wheelchair only. However this government has far from finished with us quite yet, to fund defence they are looking at some serious cuts, look no further.
On Newsnite the other nite they were actively saying the triple lock needs to go to help the young uns and fund a war machine.
I have an idea get all these workshy young uns 18+ “conscripted” into the forces teach them how to feyt and learn a trade for a minimum three years.
What are these “rewards” that you earn or is this just a carrot on a piece of string on a stick held infront of a donkey to make it walk….lol.
Switch wifi/bluetooth off in phone..does this hinder or help.

April 15, 2026 at 9:57 am in reply to: Switch Car Rental announces partnership with Motability Operations #353340How long do you get a “hire” car for ? is it for as long as needs be…say months while your car is being repaired or is there a limit…..and what happens when your hire car time is up.
I have just done this “Large” vehicle check on Motability…..i selected Large SUV and Nil advance payment
Answer….No cars found.
I had to go all the way upto £1500 Advance payment (which will have 20% VAT added in July) and the system came up with 1 vehicle the Jaecoo 7..you will need deep pockets to fuel that at current fuel prices.
Its a choice you are making and good luck to you,i like the idea of owning an vehicle at the end of the payment term.
There is one “rule” with HP….keep up the monthly payments or car gets repossessed you lose everything paid….seeing as your payments are based purely on you recieving PIP mobility…lets keep fingers crossed that nothing happens to those PIP payments….Timms is currently working on it and in two to three years a couple of very nastly PIP hating Parties will probably get elected at the next GE.
You can also unlock the car with the Skoda App on your phone…thats if its not in the locked car..lol.
For those who have’nt a clue how to change the battery or where the emergency key is.

An interesting fb post, posted across the usual Motability related fb groups by a Motability dealership sales manager who frequently has special offers on Motability scheme vehicles. This was posted today 31st March 26. Obviously details of this scheme are not known as yet, but it does suggest dealers may be starting to be pro-active in trying to ‘Hoover up’ disenfranchised or disillusioned former Motability scheme customers by designing some sort of scheme for such. Hopefully more dealerships will do likewwise for this potentially untapped market:

@BigDave would you like to make the above into a thread all of its own,i like the idea and there could be more to add into this in the future,it would be a shame if this and future content got buried in this thread.April 2, 2026 at 9:19 am in reply to: Motability Compulsory Black Box – BBC N01 viewed News Article Today #350486As well as the black box, Motability has introduced recommendations that drivers take a break every hour and aim not to do more than six journeys a day. If that is exceeded, the driver will receive a red score, but it will not impact their lease.
The above has not been thought thru at all…its as if a “think tank” has thought it up.
EV drivers already have range anxiety…next will be “take a break” anxiety…and then “six journey” anxiety.
Good afternoon and welcome to today’s round-up from The Star, Sheffield team.
A Sheffield petrol station is shut today after running out of both petrol and diesel.
And with the fuel situation beginning to turn into a crisis, it’s not the only fuel court running dry near Drakehouse.
If you have evidence that you have been “duped” then contact Motability asap.
I ate a tub full at Xmas.
I paid the extra for exclusive Velvet Red £1,000+ option on the Enyak.
It cost me the difference between the standard metallic paint and the option i chose.
At the current rate of fuel increasing….£20 will probably get you half way down Elland Road.
Cheeky dealers.
And Badenoch and Farage both think that pumping more oil out of the NS onto the world wholesale markets will bring the price of Oil/Gas down…. and make the UK safe from these sorts of spikes whenever wars kick off.
Of course, that info on the Motaclarity website is just pure speculation. Some of those cars may appear on the scheme. Many won’t. They don’t have any advance information, they are just guessing, as we do. It’s only news when a car actually joins the scheme. I don’t know if they still do it, but Motability used to have an internal list of cars that were being considered for the scheme and they would read it out to you if you asked. However, many of those cars never made the scheme either! I remember them telling me once that the Toyota Highlander was being considered, but that never happened! Plus, many of us will remember that the Range Rover Evoque was about to join (we’d even seen the Land Rover press ads for it joining Motability) and that never happened either! Of course, it would be too ‘premium’ for it to be allowed on the scheme now, even though it’s made in the U.K.
Not all speculation…look at the bottom of each cars description some say TBC…some say Order Now.
Hi All, I think we are missing the point of this forum. What new cars are coming onto the MB scheme and what do we want ???? There is soooo little action recently that even this forum is becoming a defunct platform! Does anyone know anything ??? Any REAL news greatly appreciated.
P
Seriously……..new car news is out there.
@Fartoostrong does your current lease car suit your needs perfectly now ? if it does why not go back to the grants team and tell them that you would prefer to keep your current car and extend for another 2 years,others on this forum have done that exact thing.
Dont be tempted to put £3,000 on a credit card unless it is on a card with a substantial interest free term,24 month or longer,and you can afford the monthly repayments.
CEO…the customers voice will be front and centre………oh yeh.
The voices that have had an impact on Motability of how/what it provides has been the scaremongerers in the press and the video media….they squealed and the Govt acted.
Its a race to the bottom.
