What is the Motability Scheme?

The Motability Scheme is run by a charity and is an affordable way for people on the scheme to get mobile worry-free. The scheme enables people with disabilities to exchange part or all of their mobility allowance to lease a vehicle of your choice. 

At Swansway Group we have a great range of makes and models available on the Motability Scheme, so you can find exactly what you're looking for. ​Once you've chosen the vehicle you want you can choose which adaptations you need to help you drive, access or store mobility aids in your car. 

You can also name up to two drivers for your vehicle, so if your carer, a family member or a friend could drive your Motability car. Plus you get a brand new car every three years, so if your circumstances change or even if you just fancy something different, it's really easy.

How does the Motability Scheme Work?​

Finding a vehicle on the Motability Scheme couldn't be easier.

All you need to do is:

1. Find the right vehicle for you from the latest Motability offers, it's also worth taking a look at the adaptations available that can help with accessibility.
2. Make an appointment with your nearest dealership, all Swansway Group dealerships are Motability accredited and have trained Motability specialists ready to assist you.
3. Place your order, our Motability Specialists will help you find the right car and fill out the paperwork, then we'll send an application to Motability. As soon as it's approved we'll order your new car and be in touch to arrange a handover date.

Your Motability lease will last for 3 years, so at the end of the lease simply drop the car back off at the dealership you picked it up from and arrange for a new one to be ordered.
