      I have never paid for Adblue and I have been to 3 different dealers for it. I drive in with no appointment and go to service reception and state its a Motability car and they do it whilst I wait.

      It is covered under the scheme.

       

      The 3 dealers were

      Lookers  Preston

      Lookers Silverlink Newcastle

      JCT 600 Hull

        If you think about it all cars sat in showrooms that are not WLTP compliant are now secondhand.

          Well with the new emissions coming in any cars registered after the 1st Sept have to comply to the new emissions and no way would a car built in 2013 pass these emissions test.

              I think it could get a little awkward as JCT is giving me a lot off my AP.

                  That is a shame

                  I currently have a SEL 150 4Motion DSG on order but like I said the swap date is 25th October

                    Hi Chris

                     

                    I guess you need it to be taken off your hands within the 18 plate?

                    The reason I ask is that my change over is not until late October

                      Hi Chris

                      Did you fill out a form that asks details of each driver and their driving licence details. This is the form that gives Motability the permission to approach the DVLA and enquire about your licence.

                      I filled this form out time of signing

                        From the Motability website

                         

                        Will I get any confirmation of my application?
                        Yes, we will send you a letter confirming details of your order including your PIN number. Please keep the PIN safe as you will need this on the day you take delivery of your new car. This letter will usually be sent within two weeks of an application being accepted, however if you have not received a letter within this timeframe you should contact your car dealer, or WAV supplier.

                          Hi Chris

                           

                          Although I ordered my car with the dealer on the 2nd July they could not process my order with Motability till the 24th as that was the earliest date an order could be placed as I am currently in contract with them on my VW Sharan.

                          I got a phone call from my dealer yesterday stating the order had all gone through with Motability and he said I should receive my paperwork with PIN probably end of next week beginning of the following week.

                          I know of someone that ordered a car with Motability and their paperwork was with them in 11 days

                          Is your current order on a car that is being built or is the dealer sourcing current stock?

                            By receiving the higher rate of DLA or enhanced rate of PIP entitles you to free car tax.

                            i.e. you could have the worse polluting vehicle on the planet and the car tax is covered under the terms of the agreement of DLA or PIP

                              This is the reply from my VW dealer;

                              extras can be discounted if not as much discount is given on the Advanced Payment.

                              Cannot do both if that makes sense

                                Just sent an email to my VW dealer to ask that question.

                                  I was in my dealer yesterday and I enquired about the Touran 104tsi SEL and he quoted me the £999.

                                  Nevertheless I ended up ordering a Tiguan with a very substantial cashback.

                                  And he would of honoured that on the Touran as well.

                                    Just to let you know I went for the Tiguan, this was one of the 2 I was looking at so really i got what I wanted but once again thanks for your help over the 2 Series Gran Tourer.

                                      Just my luck for it to disappear off the list, heyho, back to the drawing board especially as the Tiguan’s have gone up by £500.

                                              Sounds like you got your hands full but yes,  I can understand that having a car like the BMW makes the driving side of things less stressful.

                                              I think the test drive could be my decider, roll on Tuesday.

                                                I agree it is excellent value for money. The dealer was telling me their low prices is to get more people into the brand and like you said the Active &Gran Tourers are very popular. My next car will be 4th. Had a C4 Grand Picasso, I handed that back after 2 years, at that time I was towing a touring caravan. The caravan was well within the the permissable weights but it was useless. I got on to Motability and they gave me the option of renewing early, which I thought was very good of them. Then I got the the SMax and then the Sharan. I don’t tow anymore as it was getting a bit too much. For years I was not a lover of VW but after having this Sharan I find them a very good vehicle as the DSG gearbox is a dream.

                                                Before all them when I was working I had a new Hyundai every 6 months on a scheme the company ran with Hyundai, 3 Santa Fe’s 2 Coupes a Terrican and 2 Tuscons.

                                                  Currently its £2749 for the particular model I am after. I could get the 150bhp which is £2499. I must it is the delay which is pushing towards the Gran Tourer. I guess the test drive will sway me even closer.

                                                  Is this the first BMW you have had.

                                                    Voice control is an option on the Tiguan. I had it on the SMax and miss ot on the Sharan.

                                                      That’s interesting, as in the brochure it states 12 months. So that’s good that you get it for the term you have the car. I have been looking into the Connected and it looks a nice piece of kit.

                                                      Does it have voice control?
