All Prices on the site are now up to date, a few shafts of light but on the whole Q2 sees an upward trend in prices, especially in Automatics, Ford have saved the day with their prices and cashback offers. The full Price Search can be accessed from this page

Mercedes have reduced the price of the small diesel engined cars on both the A and B Class by up to £500, and have increased the price of the Automatics by the same amount.
Nissan have increased the price of the new Qashqai, the entry point car 1.2 petrol rises £300 to £499 Advance Payment. The outgoing X-Trail is no longer on the Scheme. (click on logo to download full list)
Hyundai have reduced the price of the ix35 by £100 and kept the i30 automatic diesel at nil advance payment.
New Peugeot Prices, click on logo for list. Nothing to report apart from an increase in the Peugeot Partner Tepee and the removal of the RCZ sports car.
Honda have moved to one production line from two at Swindon threatening 340 jobs, the cause is a downturn in sales across mainland Europe. The new 1.6 litre diesel is powerful and frugal and should see demand increasing, sadly this quarter this engine has increased in price by up to £500 Advance Payment; the entry level Civic last quarter was available without a deposit and is now £499, the CR-V diesel up by £500 across the range. The new Civic Tourer (estate) make it onto the Scheme with a disappointing starting price of £1299 (manual) £2199 (Auto) petrol or £1799 for the Diesel.
Ford are running a Cashback scheme on Zetec models of the Focus £200 and £50 on all Fiestas and Kuga’s at £200, the Kuga Titanium and Tit X also has a free appearance pack which offers aluminum finish roof bars and privacy glass, the Kuga Advance Payment has been reduced, now starting at £795 before Cashback. Ford have reduced prices across the range but the new Tourneo is added at a disappointing £795 Advance Payment.
BMW see little change in prices for the 1 series, 3 Series or X1 and no new cars (2 Series or i3) added to the Scheme.
Citroen Prices remain stable, click on logo to download price list.
Volvo, in their predictably unpredictable way have retained the V70 but have broken all records by increasing the D2 automatic by £1100 over the last quarter price, the D5 manual has only seen a rather modest increase of £500
New Audi Prices sees an end to the Automatic Q3
Vauxhall, as usual, are the first off the blocks and there are some refreshing changes, firstly the Convertible Cascada joins the Scheme and there are reductions to the price of the Mokka of up to £250, the Electric Ampera by £1000 to £1999 and the Insignia by up to £100. For those petrol heads out there the Astra GTC is now available with the 200bhp 1.6 litre direct injection petrol engine that can reach 62 miles per hour in mouth-watering 7.3 seconds. (Click on the Logo to open the full price list.)
Increase in Mobility Payments
April 2014 will see Mobility payments, either DLA or PIP, increased by £1.50 per week to £56.75 but do not expect this to impact the Advance Payments as these increases are factored into the three year pricing, the good news is that if you already drive a car that did not use all your weekly award then you will receive this extra £1.50.
Spring Cashback
Presently around 30% of those eligible to join the Scheme do so (over 600,000 people lease a Mobility Car). In real terms this makes up over 10% of new car sales, a figure that is increasing year on year. It is refreshing to see new models available on the Scheme and the smart Manufactures treating the Disabled (or Carer) with true parity to retail buyers.
As Advance Payments appear to be ever increasing, particularly for Automatics, it is therefore exciting to report that we could be on the verge of a small price war. Ford are presently offering £200 Cashback (Contribution towards the Advance Payment) on the B-Max and Focus and £400 on the Kuga reducing the price from £995 to £595 for the Zetec 140bhp Diesel. We expect a riposte from Ford’s major competitor, Vauxhall, in the very near future.
Potential New Cars for Q2
Vauxhall Cascada
The 2 door convertible Cascada is a new addition to the Scheme this quarter, the super smooth Cascada can have the roof lowered at up to speeds of 30mph in only 17 seconds, the available from £1799 as a manual or £2499 as an automatic.
Mazda 3
The Mazda 3 was released in January to great acclaim, available as a Saloon (Fastback) or Hatchback the ‘3’ is a super looking car in either guise, power from the 1.5 litre 100bhp petrol is adequate if not exciting and economy is excellent at 56.4 miles per gallon, two version of a 2.0 littre petrol are available with 120 or 156bhp the latter won’t make it onto the Scheme we suspect. The pick of the engines is the 2.2 litre diesel and we can only hope that this is added as Mazda have a history of leaving Diesel powered cars for retail sales.
Ford Tourneo Connect
The van based Tourneo Connect with 5 seats and the Grand Tourneo Connect with seven seats offer superb people carry credentials to those who put function over style, sadly the only automatic version is the 1.6 litre petrol that only offers 35.3 miles per gallon and there is no auto choice on the 7 seat Grand Tourneo. Ford are aiming at the Citroen Berlingo buyers offering a car based feel to the van shaped look.
Honda Civic Tourer
The Swindon built Civic is something of an acquired taste, we cant make up our minds but we are convinced that hidden rear door handles don’t suit estate cars but the class leading 624 litre boot and cinema flip up rear seats make it the most practical medium sized estate on the market, add to this the superb 1.6 litre diesel engine capable of 74 miles per gallon the Honda Civic Tourer will be a very welcome addition to the Scheme.
BMW i3
The BMW i3 comes as a full electric car or ‘Range Extender’ which has a 650cc engine on-board that charges the batteries while you drive but you will still need to plug it in to charge the batteries as the range cannot be extended indefinitely, only for a further 60-100 miles.
With regards the BMW 2 Series the latest communication from BMW reads:
I can advise that, as with any new model, we are currently reviewing the BMW 2 Series Coupe in conjunction with Motability Operations, to define whether the vehicle can be offered on the Motability Scheme. Unfortunately, we cannot give any indication at this stage if or when the car will be available on the Scheme.
Every three months the Motability prices are reviewed, the Spring (Quarter 2 2014) prices are released on the 1st April and we will be on hand to update you instantly with the ‘movers and shakers’ the new best deals and also the cars that have increased out of hand.
We will let you know of every movement up or down on the previous price with our little arrows. 
means the price has increased (if you place your mouse on the arrow you can see by how much the price has increased) and if the price has decreased you will see a green arrow 
or is there is no change in price the arrows will be side by side

Any news or speculation about the Q3 prices? We’re due to get our “letter” mid July and so am keen to find out what’s changed!?!
Steve, yoo won,t be disappointed when they take the Q3 off the scheme altogether, not motability as they do a cracking job, however I do hope they add the auto aswell as the manual, I’m, sure Ivor gets my point as will many others
Hi everyone, so it’s nearly that time of year again where we find out what changes or maybe no changes have been made to the price list. if you are like me you will be paying close attention to the new price list because it’s this list which will tell me how much I have to pay for my next car, which at the moment will be the Nissan Qashqai 1.5dci Tecna that is unless Nissan decide to add the all wheel drive version back on the next list because it was off this one for some reason probalby down to demand but I’m going off my question slightly. SO I was wondering if there is anyone else in my position who is going to order there new car soon and if there is I was wondering what you are going to get and also how many times have you changed your mind up until this point, I was firm on the Vauxhall Insignia until i seen the new Qashqai, so just wondered what you are going to get.
Hi, surely motability operations have the clout to say wether disabled people can choose what vehicle they want regardless of what other people think, if not why not put a cap on vehicles that abled people can purchase , what’s the difference it boils my P——
Mate, we’re doomed – second class citizens for life!!! It boiled “my” P___ a long time ago! lol How dare we have aspirations and dreams!!
Hi, just like to say that whoever got motability to change the way disabled folk have to make do with vehicles that are less powerfull ,etc, why not make it so that folk in government ie mp,s have to use vehicles that are 1.3 or 1.6 – – – No way hose ay, they need Jags n Bentleys
I don’t know all that facts surrounding the matter – and, anyone, please feel free to correct me if I’m wrong , but I believe the changes in the scheme has something to do with a certain newspaper making certain comments about the scheme/range of cars available and it’s users and then the politicians and public got their knickers in a knot about it all, so Motability made a knee jerk reaction and wiped a load of cars off the scheme overnight to save face.(all the more powerful, ‘nicer” cars-gone!)
Interesting that you don’t hear many people criticising other ‘groups’ for having nice cars. It’s always “why should the disabled get this/that…”. My neighbour whinged about Motability to me once. He didn’t like it when I pointed out that MY taxes paid for his wife to have a baby and 1 year off work with pay!
Your write Ivor, it’s a shame there couldn,t be something done about it, I for one have paid taxes for 40 years , so what do I get —— penalised for being disabled
Don’t forget Motability is a non-profit charity-based organisation. Whilst I too would love to see the latest, most powerful luxury car on the scheme, the £56 per week will not cover it.
Nornski/Normski, I challenge you to lease a luxury/prestige/powerful car that you elude to for this sort of money, even after paying a deposit (which tends to end up in the many £1000s), having insurance, tyre breakdown and servicing included, for that sort of money. Indeed, if you find a better deal then take it!
Stevey/Steve not to worry just let them do what they want with us , you never know we mite even be privelaged enough to go back to the 3 pin plug, enjoy the footy mate
Steve, the $56.75 per week doesn’t cover a lot of the cars on the scheme. That’s why there are Advance Payments – to cover the additional leasing costs, etc… I believe at one stage, Motability even offered Range Rovers, albeit with a hefty Advance Payment. So, it’s been done before. We’re not talking about wanting “the latest, most powerful luxury car on the scheme” (I’d like to see Bugatti slap a Veyron on Motability!), just something that can “keep up with the pack” on a motorway, at least, and that’s a bit better than a shopping trolley. Motability offered this in the past, so why not now – That’s all we’re saying/”eluding” to. (I think you mean alluding?) At the end of the day, Steve, it’s our money, we should be able to do with it what we want, as any other member of the public can do, when it comes to leasing. Give Motability a call, mate. They will explain how the scheme works for you, if you have any queries. They’re quite helpful.
Steve I kind of agree with you at £56.75 a week it’s great value for money. As you say, car, servicing, tyres, insurance and breakdown cover. Let’s also not forget the biggest cost in owning any car depreciation. Thousands down the pan the moment you drive off the forecourt and probably more than any deposit you’ll pay on the scheme.
What does annoy me though and Ivor is right the problem is down to a newspaper article a minister and yes a knee jerk reaction. They set the price limit to £25k and set a maximum deposit of £2k. This was all done at the start of 2012 I think and it’s never been revised despite the rise in the cost of cars generally. Yes there are cars on the scheme more than this and with bigger deposits. But the biggest selection of cars available are superminis and small hatchbacks and b****y people carriers. Don’t get me wrong there are some very nice ones on the scheme and ones I don’t know why people would even pay a deposit for.
What’s lacking for me anyway are the large well equipped family cars estates and 4×4’s. Yes there are a few there but mostly with small engines and lower equipment levels. There’s nowhere near the choice you have in other size sectors and I don’t feel that’s fair. I require a bigger car, I like and enjoy driving. I can’t walk miles so driving is great I’m equal and have freedom. If I wish to pay a bigger deposit then why can’t I !.
I do think Motability need to sort this out and put much much more pressure on the manufactures to give us the customer at the end of the day a fairer spread of cars and look at the £25k price limit and raise it. It’s out of DATE!! Trouble is they have no competition so don’t really need to.
Plus I’d love to know what the dealer gets from it and more importantly the salesperson. Someone else posted on here most of the don’t give a stuff about selling Motability cars. We seem to be an inconvenience. I can relate to this. Perhaps if the dealers got more from it they’d be pushing their appropriate manufacturer to put a better spread of cars on the scheme so they got more sales and more money.
Do you reckon Motablity actually read this forum. I hope so.
is the VW Tiguan advance payment likely to come down or rise in the next July quarter
George,
The Tiguan has steady dropped in price over the past year, We suspect the prices will remain unchanged or perhaps rise a tad, we would not expect them to decrease further.
https://www.whichmobilitycar.co.uk
I have just found out from a search at motability site that from july 1st 2014 you will not have the choice to buy instead of lease a new or used car.
You will still be able to purchase you lease car at the end of your contract still, but as i see it the choice is no longer yours you are forced into contract hire whether you like it or not which is a sad day for disabled who are denied choice even on the contract hire now with less cars on the scheme.
Hi does anyone no if quarter 3 details of prices and if any new cars will come up soon or would I have to wait for July to find out ?
Steve,
Prices for some manufactures will become available a few days prior to the 1st July date but in order to compare the full prices you will have to wait until 1st July.

Hi i have for the first time got a skoda fabia estate vrs dsg petrol on motability and must say its fantastic, no frills and simple to use no high tech exceipt for the engine and gearbox.
Been able to have a 4 way hoist fitted into the boot and the quality of the build is great im no badge snob and im a skoda convert.
I got it in feb 2014 but the prices are still the same in april motability list after this year i think there is a new fabia and sadly no vrs version and at this time no octavia vrs is available on the scheme.
Hi, does anyone know if the bmw 3 series touring xdrive 320i or 320d automatic is on the scheme
Hi Normski, Unfortunately, the only “3’s” on the scheme now, are 316 & 318 models. – the cost of a 320i/d is outside of Motability’s price limits from what I understand. Such a shame for those of us willing to pay the money for one – it’s a cracking car to drive!
Thanks for your reply Ivor, can,t understand why as the X1 2.0lt is around the same cost I,m sure, why us disabled have to be penalised is beyond belief, let’s hope the ones that do this don,t have to be in the same situation themselves, wonder if they ever thought of that (obviously not)
hi all I am new to the site.just been on phone to my local Vauxhall dealer to arrange a test drive in a new mokka 1.7cdi automatic,he said no chance cant get hold of a auto,out of the lookers 100 showrooms there are only 2 auto’s showing and they are down south,i live in northwest.does anyone have any info on the auto and what kind of box is it I-e semi-auto ,double clutch,egs,dealer could not tell me he just said it’s a six speed auto,i will be ordering my 3rd mobility car in june.would be grateful for any info.thanks.
Hi there I had a go in a auto version at a Motability roadshow and it was dreadful, it is a standard auto but the engine is so loud and it wasn’t a nice experience. Good luck
Hi john thanks for reply,since I posted I have had to settle for a test drive in a 1.7cdi manual just to get a feel for the car,and that was awful engine very loud and sluggish,wife was sat in back and she said it was a bone shaker.i will give it a miss,they are bringing a1.6 cdi out to rectify this but salesman could not say when.cheers
Hi, does anyone know why the audi A3 2.0L automatic is not on the scheme
Hi, any new on the audi A3 sedan (most likely it’ll be sport basic model)? any news on the audi a3 sport back sport 5doors? so disappointed from audi. They don’t even have audi a3 1.2 sport back available on the scheme!!!
Hi, why is it say audi for instance can have a manual q3 on the scheme and not the automatic, as the person buying pays the extra upfront, what’s the problem, Bmw do it with the X1
They’ve removed Audi Q3 Automatic from 1st April 2014.
Shame on Audi 😐
Our current car (Mercedes C Class) is up for renewal at the end of July and having become disillusioned with the Motability scheme we started looking outside the scheme to buying ourselves or personal contract hire.
My partner has MS and required a modification to the front seat to allow her to get in and out easier. This modification means we can claim VAT exemption on a new vehicle. You can only claim VAT exemption if there is a substantial and permanent modification to the vehicle.
If you were in the market for a C Class on Motability, even if it was available the advanced payment would be huge.
With a bit of negotiating we placed an order for the following at the end of last month for delivery end of July.
Mercedes E220 Cdi Estate AMG Sport Auto
Polar White
Panoramic Roof
Intelligent Light System
Reverse Camera
Black Ash wood trim
We elected to pay for the seat modification up front (£310), other than that there is zero deposit, and 36 x £366 monthly. (the VAT exemption effectively covers the deposit payment).
A 3 year 30,000 mile service plan adds £24 a month.
Plus we have to insure it, which works out at £440 a year.
We opt out of Motability and receive the £56.75 per week Mobility allowance (approx £245 per month) which we offset against the above costs.
Strangely the E class worked out a better deal the B class or the new C Class. That was simply down to residual value at three years.
If you’re keen on a C class, the 2013 model in Estate form is available now for some very good deals.
Take a look on “Drive the Deal” to see what’s available, they are real prices on there.
Hi
Could you get the VAT exemption through Drive The Deal
I contacted them and was told their dealers don’t do it?
Which dealer did you go with please?
Basoom,
In order to benefit from a VAT free purchase ‘permanent and substantial’ modifications need to be made to the vehicle, as Drive the Deal are a Nationwide facilitator (middle man) I can understand that they would rebuff your advances, take a look at carwow as they work slightly differently and you may find a happier outcome.
https://www.whichmobilitycar.co.uk
The “permanent and substantial” modification undertaken on our car was a seat lift of 50mm of the front passenger seat.
We got Mercedes to price match Drive the Deal, simply used the prices on the DTD website as leverage.
Is the new C Class going to be available next quarter? Will Volvo bring back XC 60? got to hand mine back soon. Sad face )-:
I doubt it sadly the price is a factor and the demand will probably be high so if you want a Merc it’s down to A or B class I’m afraid
Will golf gt come on the scheme ????
I very much doubt it which is a shame becasue it falls into the right price.
Seems to be easy enough to get £500 off AP on Honda’s. I managed to get generous px on top + free extras. Would like to hear from others who managed to negotiate. One dealer told me privately motability “nice little earner”. so worth a try, esp as prices risen quite a bit!
Which Honda dealer ? As I was after the CRV which Unfortunatly gone up significantly the quarter.
hi Bassetts Honda in bridgend or Swansea on crvs. Also they have them in stock in the 1.6 model which does 63 to gallon. good luck.
Hi,
I’m thinking about getting the bmw 120d 1 series m sport X drive this month and wanted to know if I get leather seats included or will I have to pay extra. Also wanted your opinion on this model and also about it being a 4×4 please.
Thanks guys.
No sadly you have to pay for the leather I looked at the spec list of the 120 on What Car? Sadly you don’t get a lot of goodies thrown in which is a shame when you bare in mind that it’s a £25k + car and not near the botom of the range I think leather was something like £1400 or £1500 either way it wasn’t cheap.
Hi Riky,
Leather upholstery on this car is £800 optional extra, as are most “goodies” from BMW. Can’t offer any opinion/advice on the x-Drive front as I haven’t had the pleasure, but can only imagine it will be nice and “grippy”, and a good choice for the more wintry weather.
If ordering a Grand Cmax Poweshift check delivery dates. Ordered a Grand Cmax 2.0dci 163 powershift titanium x with extras on 14th January with a 12 week delivery. Contacted dealer today to check on delivery and have been told delivery expected on 31/05/2014 . Anyone else had delivery delays.
Hi two questions. Will the £25k limit ever be reviewed and increased. It was set just over two years ago? Should it not be reviewed annually and adjusted to reflect the increase in car prices. All the bigger, better equipped cars will just start to come of the list as prices rise. Also how does it work there are cars on the list way more expensive than the £25k limit, the Volvo V60 1.6TD SE Lux manual if you look on the Volvo site this is a £29k+ car.
Hi I have no idea about a review of the £25k limit but I really do think it does need to be reviewed to reflect car prices as you say. As for the cars that are more expensive being on the scheme, in reality they would fall in or around the limit if you were a private buyer and you haggled and most of the car makers on the scheme give really large discounts to Motability because it is the biggest fleet buyer in the UK. However if you read some posts on this site you will realise that being that big doesn’t mean that they flex their muscles anyway near as much as they should and sometimes as a Motability customer some dealers push us down their priority lists which makes no sense to me because at the end of the day a sale is a sale.
WHERE ARE THE VW PRICES??? Can someone tell me what the situation regarding the VW CC? In partcular the 210 bhp DSG auto
Thanks
Hi mate. VW CC aren’t doing the petrol version in auto, the only auto is the diesel gt version at £2299. I do like the car myself, I enquired about the car, apparently from the dealer i spoke to who assured me the petrol is disappearing next quarter and the gt is going from the scheme completely as its deemed as too sporty! Hes not sure when but looks to be September. I’d hurry and order if I were you.
Hi Simon
Thanks for that, that’s a real shame as in my opinion that’s the only decent car left on the scheme. Guess I’ll just have to order the manual which I didn’t really want.
Special £200 cash back deal at Blade Seat on Seat Leon.
http://www.bladegroup.co.uk/seat/motability/seat-leon-motability-offers/
Perhaps we could have a dedicated page for the offers?
Johnsons Volvo are doing a special on the V60 D2 (115hp) SE Lux Estate for an incredible £500 reduced from £999. http://www.johnsonscars.co.uk/volvo/motability-offers/v60-motability.
Anyone know how they can do it?
I had a call from motability today following an email I sent them regarding the bmw 2 series failure to appear. She said “I have good news for you, the two series will come on during the next quarter” She went on to say it might not be at the start of the quarter but maybe August time. Since my hand over date is sept 1st she said if I hung on then they would extend my current 1 series coupe to cover any delays related to a late order. Now I’m hoping it goes on with decent trim levels loll
Thanks for sharing, Mike!!! I was totally gutted when the 2 series wasn’t on the recent updates. Now, be a good lad & get back to the lovely lady and find out which models are on the way 😉 !!!!! Agree – fingers crossed for some “decent” specs.
That’s cracking news about the 2 series on it’s way!!! I also am hoping for decent trim levels – probably won’t be seeing anything more than a 220D though. But, that’s not a bad thing! Roll on next quarter!!!
Hi Mike,
can you let me have the email address please?
The following is an extract from an email from Motability,
“I am pleased to advise that we do have plans to introduce the BMW 2 Series to the Motability Scheme, at some stage during the next quarter.
Regrettably, we are unable to find out the exact variations that will be available, until they appear on our Price List.”
Interesting ? johnsons volvo are offering to pay advance payment on v40 models eg crosscountry lux nil advance payment saving 600/700 off mobility price list.is this allowed?
sorry it was a cross country lux auto for nil ap
Spoken to Johnsons as well and asked about the V70 d2 and d5 Business editions. D2 is £800 on promotion and D5 is £1499 on promotion. Will be going down within next couple of weeks to test drive. Looks like Johnsons Volvo are offering savings throughout the range is going by what you say too neil.
I think this is a good example of dealers trying to get the business if they are prepared to pay the AP and it’s the car you want then go for it you don’t get a lot these days for free and given the current crazy price changes on the scheme every little helps it’s sad more don’t do this.
thanks john,i have been looking on the net and if you look at the independant garages you can find some interesting discounts .
That’s what this site is all about, well spotted. Any one else found similar deals?
I’ve been asking this question and getting no reply! Could anyonee here and which motability please find out if the mazda 3 or giulietta is going to be added the quarter.
Simon,
The Motability Search Tool, in which entrys for both Alfa and Mazda have been updated, suggests that neither are available. However, it may be worth a chat with your local Alfa/Mazda dealer to confirm.
Why don’t you call Motability and find out? No one here is obliged to help you and this website is more of a forum, not directly linked to Motability.
However I do agree that this website should make its mission statement a little clearer as from what I can see a lot of people are thinking this is an official Motability site.
In a nutshell, this site gives information that Motability should be providing as a matter of course.
I have speaking difficulties text and e mail are much easier for me, im aware that there is no obligation for anyone to help im an educated guy. Civil humanity therefore is what I stand by and would glady help anyone who neded it.
Motability will respond to emails, I have had a few email conversations with them.
https://www.motability.co.uk/about-us/contact-us/general-enquiry-form
Hey ice why do motability customers get treated any differently to “normal customers”, are there any different financial implications between the two sets of buyers. Im confused if there’s a 25k limit why isn’t any car available under that price, it seems the choice is theirs and not ours. You seem well informed and I’d like to hear your thoughts, regards nick.
I don’t know about 25k limit but just ordered titanium x ford kuga which is just shy of 30k so it could be you have to do your research yourself I did it took weeks but we’ll worth it in the end.
Hey Nick
I honestly don’t know, but I’ll hazard a guess since you asked. After speaking to Motability on a few occasions about inclusion of certain cars, they informed me that they look into the overall cost of the car including insurance and most probably the difference in price from when bought to then being sold (probably why some cars over 25k are added sometimes, as they retain there value well, BMW/CC GT). When they have done a work up on a car they would then most likely approach the dealership and try and negotiate a price for the car (this would most likely be less then retail value, as they are a fleet buyer but still enough for a healthy profit). Any extra money that is needed to make the car cost neutral to them is then added as advanced payment.
Now my issue with Motability is I don’t think they are negotiating hard enough better offers are to be had.
Also certain cars under 25k aren’t offered or offered with an high AP is usually because the car is new and doing well on the private market, so the company will wait until sales dip then introduce/lower the price on Motability
Hi could you let me know if the kia sportage is still available and the prices please
Any chance of Which Mobility Car sending a letter to Motability on our behalf asking for their take on why the AP’s have rocketed and publishing their reply?
Well said Alan, I think we all deserve answers as to why in Q2 2014 we’re all getting less value for money !!! ……. explain yourself http://www.motability.co.uk.
Here, here! When the allowance goes up by 2.7% and the RPI is current 1.7%, how come the general trend is for suppliers to increase at a considerably greater rate? Come on Motability; flex some muscle. Disappointed.
The Mazda MX-5 sport tech nav has also been removed this quarter! Deeply disappointed by the and the removal of other cars mentioned in the other comments. Shame on you motability, you’re really limiting your customers choices
To which motability, just wondered if you could help. Is alfa putting on the giulietta this quarter and mazda, are they putting on the mazda 3?
I am due to hand back my Nissan Qashqai in May, and have been looking at the options since mid Jan.
I decided to hold out until the Q2 price change only to find Nissan increased the price of the same spec of Qashqai as I have now to £999.
Obviously made me consider other similar style of vehicles (like The Mokka & the 2008 crossover) but came across the one option that seems to have slipped under the radar and has a vastly reduced advance payment…. Renaults CAPTUR.
Ranges from NIL deposit to £95… An ideal replacement I’d say and well worth a look.
Just had a call from Peugeot rep to see if there was anything he could do for me. Told him I had settled for a Ford automatic and he started to barter and offer the 2008 auto for no A.P. and reduce the payment on the Allure. Sounds like there could be some worried salesmen out there and this quarter could be down to horse trading.
Grt u went for Ford. I.paid 495 for 2008 auto allure.last sept. Cldnt offer me a test drive as no 2008 in.uk according to dealer.
Cant wait to be rid OF the damn thing. AWFUL PIGEON egc gear change and seat lumbar none existent.
Its made my cond worse increased pain.meds and anti sickness and the early term costs and ap pricing to chg it has made me so depressed upset unable to sleep and anxious. STICK WITH FORD!
Hi Kate, contact Motability if you’re not ok with your car…. You can hand it back and change to another car. Good luck.
Could someone at Which Motability Car please advice me on the following: is the £200 Cashback on a Ford Kuga already taken off the Motability listed deposit, or is it already taken off the listed deposit? My local dealer is claiming that marketing has told him that it’s already taken off the listed deposit. Please confirm your understanding on this issue, thank you.
Opps! Let me correct the question. Is it to be taken off, or is it already taken off?
Paul,
The £200 is to be taken off the listed price, the kuga Zetec at £795 will cost £595. I would recommend that you instruct the Dealer to call Ford Motability for clarity.
https://www.whichmobilitycar.co.uk
Thank you very much. I have!
Hi could you tell me when the new ford list will be available to download? As i cant see anywhere regarding the cash back deal + free appearance pack on kuga as can only see it as £300 extra.
Hey everyone
This quarter update in prices has been absolutely outrageous. Motability is the largest fleet car buyer in the UK, how can they not negotiate better deals for there customers. They should stop treating these companies like they are doing us a favour and start taking us, the customer more seriously. Its as though we are second rate customers because we are getting our cars for free….. well these cars are not free, we pay a heck of a lot of money and all these companies make a profit from us. If they want to continue to receive our money they should offer better rates and not remove cars they are selling a lot of (do they do that to private buyer?) or increase AP, especially since the recent increase in PIP payments.
Well said ice!
Does anyone know the correct AP for the Volkswagen CC. 2.0 Tdi 140 auto. Prices appear to differ on the Motability site and Volkswagens own site. Thanks
Gill,
The CC 140 Auto is £1999, reduced by £800, the CCGT 140 Auto is reduced by £500 to £2299. At last some good news!
https://www.whichmobilitycar.co.uk
Hi there, is there any price change for the vw cc gt 177 manual, thx.
Nick,
The 177 CCGT has increased by £100 to £1999 Advance Payment.
https://www.whichmobilitycar.co.uk
So if I order at the end of may for September 1st will I pay the price it is now or any price change come the 1st of July, thx nick.
Hi there. Has anyone got any idea what alfa are doing regarding the giulietta?
decided to extend lease on present car, will lease payments be reduced ? thanks
Sounds a good way for everyone to protest. I would do the same if Ford weren’t offering the Focus Titanium Nav estate for an amazing £195.
Citroen Has Increased The C4 1.6i VTi VTR+ Auto and 1.6eHDi VTR+ EGS6 From £295 To £995. A Big Jump.
No Difference On The Deposit For The C3 1.6i VTi Exclusive EGS6 Still £195 as when I ordered in Q1.
The Nissan X Trail is still shown on the motability website as being available today 01/04/2014
Looks like a very easy quarter to choose a car. Ford is a no brainer unless the competition get their acts together.
Gutted No 2 series! No more RcZ what’s going on? Looks like vauxhall are the only brand to make some nice additions with the 200bhp gtc and cascarda well done there, but slaking else where
Am I right then that no 2 series, the auto audi q3 has gone, the auto tekna quashqai has gone and even the Peugeot RCZ has gone. What’s going on this quarter? Why the big cull ?
hi mike the peugeot rcz is on citreons listbut only in sport,at 1999.i can only think that we are being classed as second class citizens again,motability as a fleet car buyer in the real world would not be treated this way and needs to show some balls….sorry for the rant but the scheme seems to be going back in time.
Absolutely gutted by motability / nissans decision to remove the tekna spec from the qashqai range, motability need to start realising that customers should be able to get what they pay for and unlike some of the population think we do not get a car for ruddy free!! Absolutely disgusting the range of cars available nowadays motability need to start listening to their customers especially those of us who need an automatic combined with diesel and maybe want to pay forsome spec not standard !
The tekna spec is still on motability website for this quarter. The 1.5dci is £1999. If it was me id seriously consider the bmw x1 msport for less!
Glad to see Kia have not changed anything at all. I ordered a Nissan Qashqai Tekna, but due to ridiculous delays I went for a Kia Sportage 3 2014 facelift model. Looks and drives better than the nissan and is £1500 AP, and now the Tekna is £2000 AP. Go for the Kia, better car and better Customer Service with no delays.
Motability didnt remove Tekna just made it expensive simply as people ar bieng made to wait for 15weeks + although taking orders and saying a month, there are many waiting since January still with july delivery dates
Quite right they have removed the Tekna CVT
I am on a 19 + week wait for the car and it increases every time I ask – no way should they be taking any more orders for this car until they have got the supply sorted out
Gutted about lack of bmw 2 series, that was my plan A , having had a 1 series coupe for five years on low mileage extension that I love, I was hoping for more of the same when I begrudgingly part with mine
Very sad to see the Audi Q3 S-Line off the list! What a shame. First the 4wd s-line came off in January, now the slibe is off all together. The Se model is just not worth considering, shame on you Audi!
Danny I agree with you. The Q3 SE is so basic and is not worth paying £1,999. The S line Quattro was a good choice but unfortunately has been taken off the scheme.
Like you said shame on Audi !!
Agree with you Danny that was the car I was thinking nice car is the se still in fwd gutted
I am very sad the Q3 s-Line as gone of the list, the Audi dealer did tell me. I was awaiting to see if the Mercedes c-class was going to be on the list.
Now I have to start all over again thinking what to get.
Cheapest Ford Tourneo Connect is £795 and NO Grand Tourneo Connect option, that’s either an April fool or they just don’t want people to order them……….. £795 ha ha ha ha !!!
Hi just wondering if there was any news on BMW2 for q2?
Wait until tomorrow or, give your local BMW dealer a ring – they have the lists now.
Please can you advise if the new model 2014 KIA SOUL AUTOMATIC will be on the Q2 list.
Its official UK launch date is April 8th, Kia HQ have emailed me.
My local dealer gave a strong impression it will be on the Q2 list AND in an AUTO model, however he isnt able to give a firm date when he will be able to get one on site for me to test drive.
I am happy to drive up to 100 miles radius for a dealer who can offer me a test drive in the 2014 NEW Kia Soul auto model to ensure it meets my needs.
Can you give any indication on what the AP could be??
Finances are restricted and REALLY hoping its on the list in auto and affordable as my last Kia Soul was a dream and met all my needs perfectly.
It was the SE Tempest auto and wish i never changed it. 🙁
Any idea of Advance Payment on a Seat Altea automatic. I have one on order May delivery, £699 at the moment. If the advance comes down will I be able to pay the new price?
I think you pay the.price at time of order. This is deemed fairer by.motability as im sure you wouldnt be happier to pay higher price if it went up. Were thinking of altea xl in AUTO as need bigger boot for wheelchair.
THE ADVANCE PAYMENT IS WHAT IT WAS AT TIME OF ORDER REGARDLESS OF ANY CHANGES
sorry for the caps mistake my end not shouting at you
Thanks for reply
forgot to mention the car was astra sri 200ps
And the info for the tyres came from my local vauxall dealer!
I did call vauxall mobility who said that the info i was given was wrong and the tyres are covered.
Good price for the car in april , advance payment dropped by £1000.
This is a scheme for ‘immobile’ people yet automatic cars are priced at a premium. Sometimes you see a really nice manual car at no upfront payment yet the same car in automatic mode can carry a pre-payment of up to £ 900. Would it not be fairer for an arrangement to be made with manufacturers so that some of the better manuals also attracted a pre-payment and this could help lower the fee for automatics. The manufacturers would be no worse off yet it would be fairer all round.
I agree. I require auto due to medical needs and auto licence. As i need a higher seated car i can wave goodbye to approx £1000 before i even think about suitability to other needs ie lumbar support and boot dimensions.
How can a convertible or cabrio vehicle be classed as a disability NEED? Do the lift their scooter ir wheelchair over the side onto the back seat when the roof is down? I just cant see how its justified or even allowed on the list!
Yet these sport type vehicles like astra gtc and cabrio audi and minis etc are all about DESIRED styling, looking swish n fancy and NOT based on medical needs. YET THEY COME WITH LOWER ASV PAYMENT! This is WHY the system is abused!! Oh ive got a bad chest or a limp, play it right i can get an audi cabrio for 1500 quid!
It disgusts me. At a young age (mid 30s) i would love a sporty cabrio but NO i have to have a vehicle bigger, comfier and auto that also fits my wheelchair but looks like i have 6 kids and 2 dogs!
Hi Kate
I think a lot of us would totally understand your gripes about the premium price of automatics, however I am not sure that your additional comments are either warranted or justifiable, particularly as they appear to label all disabled drivers as fraudulent malingerers who elect for a model that you admit you would love to have but cannot due to your own specific health needs.
Not everybody on the scheme is wheelchair bound, including myself and I can assure you that my 20 yr long disability is as genuine as your own may be.
I am due for my renewal this next month and I will be trying to find a vehicle that is both the most suitable in terms of my disability, performance, economy AND style. You must remember that the Motability Scheme is not a benefit in its own right or free car as the majority of the general public seem to believe, it is a legitimate benefit that is now becoming extremely difficult to get, designed to assist disabled with ‘getting around’.
If the motability scheme didn’t exist then disabled people would perhaps go out put the weekly payments to privately finance whatever vehicle they wanted/could afford, exactly as they do on the scheme.
Try not to allow your own frustrations to make you add to the overwheming number of witch hunters out there having a go at the disabled in general and like your own comments, make sweeping accusations that tar everyone with one brush and make us feel guilty for spending £1,000’s of our benefit entitlement on a nice reliable car to get ourselves out and about. Would you really have us all back in the old pale blue Invalid cars??
Some do screw the system, MOST don’t.
I apol as didnt mean to suggest EVERYONE takes the piss just some. I for one dont have thousands saved for big ap but some do. I agree not all disability is seen and have no qualms over the sporty higher powered cars. But a conv car for disability cant be justified as a need just an accesory the same as say bluetooth or mp3 stereo. It wont aid your disability just make u have a grt car for summer is what i meant.
I agree with what your saying manufacturers need to make automatics cheaper and more choice available .vauxhall have just put a 200 bhp car on the scheme which is a manual .a lot of people do take this piss as I worked for Kwik fit dealing with Motability customers before I became disabled myself and some on the cars were very sporty and the drivers weren’t even disabled
Ok lets deal with the automatic price issue – this has nothing to do with Motability nor indeed the manufacturers, the price is market lead and has everything to do with residual value. In this country automatics are not as popular as manual so when the car comes back into the dealer at the end of three years the residual value of an auto compared to a manual is less – ie, the car has cost more for that 3 years of lease – hence the deposits being higher. I need an automatic these days I may not like the situation but I do understand it.
Darren you do realise that not all motability car drivers are disabled they may well be driving the car as a nominated driver in fact a lot of motability cars are not driven by the disabled person themselves, FTR my wife is the disabled person ( although I am not far off myself these days) and on every occasion I have taken the car to kwik fit for tyres she has never been with me.
Sporty or different cars – well I am old enough to remember the little blue three wheeler – the idea of motability was to offer disabled a choice – now we all have different needs and indeed every disabled person is different but the one thing in common is that most likely it will be an “only” car, so if I can fit into a sports car or a cabriolet ( fat chance) then why should I not be able to use MY money as I see fit – again not all disabled people are wheelchair bound.
Hi, I’m due to change my 2011 qashqai which for me is very underpowered for the size of the load I carry but more on that later if your interested.
Have 2 days in which to get my order in prior to the q2 prices being released (due to order 30 mar14) so my question is this.
I’m torn between the Mercedes b200 and the BMW 3 series tourer. Now do you know of any changes in q2 that would make me rush to get my order placed before the new prices are released.
Many thanks
Sir,
We do not have any advance knowledge over pricing, we can say that we feel it very unlikely that the 3 series touring will be reduced in price but the B class was increased last quarter and we would like/expect to see a reduction in the Advance Payment this coming quarter.

Can you tell me if the Audi Q3 S line quattro will be avaliable for the 1995ap like it was before?…..
Great site. Very informative
Hi
is it true that the tyres on the 20in rims (optional)will not be covered on motability.and that you will have to pay for them yourself if they have to be renewed?.
Clive,
We have never heard of anything like this, the Kwikfit centres would have been informed but to our knowledge this is not the case. We would recommend that you call Motability on freephone 0800 093 1000 to put your mind at rest.
https://www.whichmobilitycar.co.uk
All tyres are covered on Motability thrust Kwik fit I worked for them for 22 years so I should no
Hi does anyone know if the nissan xtrail will be on the scheme before August?
And is it likely that there will be an auto version?
No need to answer my comment about the Ford kuga as it’s just arrived at dealers in record time! Can’t pick it up yet as I’ve got to get sum surgery done but thumbs up motability rep great service! (Bristol Street Durham)
Is the Seat Leon ST 1.6 TDI 105 PS 7-speed DSG-auto (Estate) going to be on the same offer with the Tech. Pack at £ 799 ?.
We currently have the Vauxhall Zafira 1.9 Auto but it is no very forgiving on the Diesel. And the Leon boasts 72 MPG. it seems a very promising deal.
hi just wonder if anyone knows ordered car paid part deposit but cant afford the reamaning balance straight away. what should i do as i need my car.
please reply thanks
You have until the date you collect your car to pay the advance payment, as long as you have the outstanding payment on the day you collect the car you should be fine.
why are seats in bmw 3series so near to the ground i am baffled how adissabled people can get in and out
It depends on your disability. I have MS and can’t walk very far at all, but I can get in and out of my Astra GTC with no trouble. Anyone with e.g. a serious heart condition or lung disease would also be capable of driving a low seated car. Not all disabilities are outwardly visible are not all are associated with flexibility.
Well said Georgie!
Hi, you state that people with lung conditions can drive low seated cars, I can assure you my friend that is not always the case , please do not “Assume,”because that can make an ass..out..of..u..and..me.
I noticed this, I have a 1 series coupe and the seat is great, you can ratchet it up quite high. However the other week I went and sat in the new 1 series hatchback and the new 2 series and both seats were very low and the height adjustment was non existent . All it involved was the seat pivoting at the knee, lowering your back side while keeping knees at same height to make it go down and levelling off the seat was as high as it went. I could use the sill to push myself out of the car it was so low.
I wonder if you paid for the £600 power seats if they are different in their make up, ie go up high and level rather than simply pivot
Hey guys
Just wondering, I am looking to order a new car and see that I can choose from either metallic or non metallic paint. If I pick non-metallic can I use the difference in price, £625, to add extra features to the car i.e parking sensors. Any suggestions or past experiences would be helpful
Thanks
No, metalic paint is free to mobility customers so there would be no difference in the advance payment between metalic and non metalic paint.
Is there any chance that Mazda will introduce a CR-V diesel into the scheme in April as an option to the thirsty petrol versions? If so, guesses as to the AP?
Sorry, meant the CX-5.
Iain,
We have been waiting a while for Mazda to add diesels to their CX-5 and Mazda6 offerings without success, so simply put we would not expect them to join next quarter.
https://www.whichmobilitycar.co.uk
Hi, we are new to motability so was wondering if you would be able to help us? We are looking at the SUV and MPV cars but would like the car to have as large a boot space as possible, good fuel economy (50+ mpg), low CO2, and as low an AP as possible (not more than £700 AP). Are there any you or your customers could recommend to us that would match our needs and any possible offers that may be coming onto the scheme from April 1st? Thank you.
Does anybody heard whether there are delays in manufacturing with regards ford kuga titanium X ? I’ve heard there is with regards the leather seats?
I have been looking around for a vehicle to be able to fit a boot hoist to lift my pride traveller lx” 50 kg” ‘ the grand Picasso will but the prices are high although they have everything fitted standard that I would have to get fitted extra, eg auto handbrake, auto lights and wipers, one fault when you lift the boot, the car cannot be seen on a night because of the lights are fitted to the tailgate and it is pitch black when putting scooter in or out. (COULD YOU CONTACT CITROEN ABOUT THIS ISSUE, ITS A ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN. IF IT COMES FROM MOTABILITY THEY WILL TAKE NOTE ) . NOBODY CAN TELL me if the new Nissan qashqia can city a hoist to lift my scooter, so I can’t order because of things like this, bit disgusting, I just can’t afford the grand Picasso and it would save loads of modifications for mobility, I have heard about a grant and if I could get a grant for the advance payment on the grand Picasso I could fit everything inside and have my family would still be able to go out. What is the chance of that?? I would get on bended knees, if I could, to get the advance payment for this car, all my troubles would be taken away of searching. I cannot find anymore vehicles to suit, I have dealt with Phil moxom the notability guy at Evans halshaw, in Leeds Citroen since getting my first car, he is so more like a friend than a salesman, he has gone through the options and to save a lot of mods for notability it has to be the grand Picasso. After spending some time with him onlyto tell him that i couldn’t afford the advance payment, he was not upset for the time wasted, but suggested the notability grant. Otherwise I have not got much option in finding the ideal car, since I am single I have to pay rent and things for my sheltered flat, and because I’m so much percentage disabled and I was getting g the industrial injuries benefit, my money took me over what I was allowed to earn, but scooters and cars and other things are why I need the money, not to be used for my rent, they take the extra money off, but the money from the industrial injuries is not on my p60, and is tax free, if it is not tax free then according g to tax,I’m not earning enough otherwise it would be taxed, and its not a income because its not on my p60 yearly earnings, IM SURE THIS MUST BE ILLEGAL, I’m going to end up with no car because I need the lift, I’ve just laid out money for a new scooter as mine broke, that’s were the extra money gets spent on,so now overdrawn by £500. The fun of disabled, sorry I’ve gone off subject sometimes but there must be others that are going to be stuck in flats all day because you can just not afford the car you need, sorry for my chant, Paul Leeds, west Yorkshire.
Paul firstly your on abou tthe who family can go out etc etc then you say your single lol
Motability do a grant you have to apply no bended knees needed but it has a strict criteria
Wed all love help with AP and all got debts but give them a go
As for the tailgate Citreon wont listen to Motability there must still be a reflector on rear of car when boot open its UK law if you look at insignia estate theres a set of lights now inside the boot opening lol
Qashqai wont lift any scooter you need a hoist fitted first
Will ford tourneo grand connect be on scheme in April
Anthony,
Yes, the Ford Grand Tourneo Connect will be on the Scheme.
https://www.whichmobilitycar.co.uk
Any idea of advance payment
Any idea if the bmw x1 will reduce in April 2014?
Iain,
The X1 prices have been stable for a while and doubt that Q2 will see a decrease.
https://www.whichmobilitycar.co.uk
I found the car that ticks all my boxes – VW Golf Estate 1.4 SE DSG currently with an AP of £649.
I don’t know whether to order now or wait until April 1st?
Does anyone know if V-Dubs AP change much from Q to Q?
The Golf estate only joined the Scheme this Quarter so we would expect the prices to remain untouched, historically if Volkswagen do tinker with prices they are only slight changes and never in the hundreds of pounds.
https://www.whichmobilitycar.co.uk
any reduce on the AP for new Qashqai ??
Ryan,
As a number of customers are waiting for their Qashqai to be delivered and have suffered extended delays we cannot see a reduction in price next quarter.
https://www.whichmobilitycar.co.uk
Hi is there any chance the ix35 will come down in price in april
Ian,
With the new Qashqai doing so well and Ford offering a £400 cashback on the Kuga it may see a knock on to the ix35 being reduced slightly but Hyundai do not make big changes to their prices as a rule so we would expect the prices to remain they are.
https://www.whichmobilitycar.co.uk
Hi do you know if the BMW Series 2 active tourer will be added onto the scheme
Caroline,
We do expect it to be added to the Scheme but after its release in September.
https://www.whichmobilitycar.co.uk
Any chance of the 4 series coming on to the scheme, or is that a no go? I want to drive something bigger than a hatchback but prefer it to be German… The VW CC or 3 series are looking like my only options atm, but neither have the most adventurous of engines.
Omar,
The 4 series will not be added to the Scheme, sadly the Mercedes C class will not be joining next quarter either, The CCGT offers a 210 bhp petrol engine which is adventurous enough for most drivers.
http://www.whichmobiliitycar.co.uk
Hi there
i order my new Qashqai from 1 month ago and it will arrive on the 27th of March 2014 , just wondering if the AP (699 ) will go down on 1st of April or not ? and if yes should i wait until 1st of April ?
Regards
Joe,
As a number of customers are waiting for their Qashqai to be delivered and have suffered extended delays we cannot see a reduction in price next quarter.
https://www.whichmobilitycar.co.uk
I went to Audio today and told the Queen will be off the list for April.
Will the Mercedes C class be on the list in April? Also how much will be the advance payment.
Sorry the Audi Q3 will be off the list.
alfa romeo have changed the lineup/spec of the giulietta any idea of the new ap ,there are now 4 models progression,distintive,exclusive and sportia nav ranging on the road from £ 17489 to£26774
Hey any idea if the vx golf , a1, a3, 1 series or a class will be dropping in price for advanced payment?
G,
From the list of cars the Audi A1 is the most likely to see a reduction in price as it increased this quarter.
https://www.whichmobilitycar.co.uk
Do vauxhall mess about with advance payments each quarter too much? I have booked an extended test drive on the zafira tourer but it won’t arrive until after the price list has changed. If the car has gone up too much there is not much point in testing it.
Also is the qashqai expected to go down in price as that’s what I have now but the new shape is just too expensive for me at the moment for the trim I want.
Vauxhall do tinker with their prices but have been quite calm over the last few price changes, The Zafira Tourer was reduced this quarter by an average of £100 and would be surprised if there were wholesale price increases. The Qashqai will not be reduced in price, we may even see a small increase.
https://www.whichmobilitycar.co.uk
I have just got myself a Ford BMax 1.6 AUTO for only £45.00 AP with the Spring Saving and only having to wait 1 week for it. The offer is on all Fiesta’s Focus and BMax cars. I could of had a Focus Titanium Navigator (with sat nav) AUTO for NIL AP if I was willing to wait!
Any clues on fiesta or focus autos advance payments for april? Test drove the 1.6 auto fiesta yesterday .
Sir,
We are under the impression that the cashback scheme will be extended into next quarter and pricing of Ford cars to be overhauled, we know that Ford are having a big push on mobility cars this quarter to arrest their slide in Quarter 1.
https://www.whichmobilitycar.co.uk
looks like Vauxhall are reducing prices in Q2
https://www.whichmobilitycar.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/Vauxhall-Q2-2014.pdf
Hi,
Any news or insight regarding the Mercedes CLA or Audi A3 Saloon possibly being added to the scheme for Q2?
Thanks
Ahmed,
We have confirmation from Audi that the A3 Saloon will not enter the Scheme in the near future and the same fate will befall the Mercedes CLA sadly.

Hi as we couldn’t have a xtrail we had a look out of curiosity at the Volvo v70 what a fantastic car boot fits the electric wheelchair in a dodle just wondering if the Volvo v70 d5 prices 1st April
Many thanks Rod
Rod,
If you are keen on the manual D5 V70 then we would recommend placing an order before the Q2 prices come out, if you are after the Geartronic D5 V70 to come back onto the Scheme we would doubt that it will be added sadly, having said that Volvo are the most unpredictable manufacturer to second guess.
https://www.whichmobilitycar.co.uk
Hi and many thanks we are pre ordering the car tomorrow v70 d5 manuel.
Will the advance payment on the kia sportage com down in April and if not how much for the mokka
Ian,
The Kia Sportage has seen quite consistent pricing, but the arrival of the new Qashqai and the cashback offered by Ford on the Kuga may see a decrease in price. The Mokka was recently reduced and again we would not be surprised if there is a small adjustment downwards.
https://www.whichmobilitycar.co.uk
Hopefully Nissan will either increase the AP on the new Qashqai or remove it from the scheme if only until they get the supply/demand sorted out.
I know this seems a strange comment however if it deters people from ordering a car that they will have to wait months for and be let down by broken promises and poor customer service it will be worth it.
any news on the bmw 2 series yet
Neil,
We are waiting for BMW to come back to us, we have asked the question.
i would like to know if you had a little insight or educated guess about the citreon grand c4 picasso prices form 1st april?
Nathaniel,
We can tell you that Citroen do not fiddle with their prices too much, they set a price at the start and tend to stick with them, we would expect little or more likely no change in the C4 Grand Picasso prices.
https://www.whichmobilitycar.co.uk
So would you expect a price drop on the vauxhall Zaria tourer now that ford are offering £200+ cash back
Nathaniel,
Ford are not offering cashback on their range of 7 seat cars so we would be very surprised if Vauxhall offer any discounts against the Zafira Tourer.
https://www.whichmobilitycar.co.uk
