Other motability scheme cars are available

Yeah motability I'm getting senile in my old age

The reason you find oap in a vrs is simple ! Most of them are blue badge brigade so they've had them for nowt

 

 

Blue Badge doesn't entitle you to a single penny, never mind a free car.

Following on from this, technology must exist to detect whether a driver is high on drugs? If not until such a time that a device that detects drugs & automatically immobilizes the car becomes available, then every driver should be accompanied by an airport trained dog that snatches your keys when drugs are sniffed. Is that a good idea or what?

 

Is it not simply a blood test? Administered by the police. No canine required.

 

Sadly the twonks that are happy to endanger our lives by driving under the influence are often only ever caught because they get stopped for having a light out or decided to fit HID's to reflector headlamps.

Should you be driving then?

Yeah but a motability does ! I'm not against it but presumably if you are on the wrong side of 60 , would you be spending your own cash on a vehicle that will make you like a prat ? Maybe ? ( old and grey and driving a hot hatch )

No on the right side of 60

I believe that the Uk is the only country in the EEC that doesn't have electronic drug testing equipment, capable of being administered at the point when the driver is stopped. Instead the police have to resort to psychological type tests such as touching the tip of your nose.

I am sure some of the resident plod will correct me if I'm wrong.

As an aside, according to statistics, some 30% of accidents are caused by drunk drivers. That means the other 70% of accidents are caused by SOBER DRIVERS. Wouldn't it make sense therefore to BAN THE SOBER DRIVERS and leave us drunken drivers in peace?

Yet to meet anyone that will have leased a vRS on Motability with the deposit that would require.

£1645 (more for an Estate)

then £54 + a week. so £8500 plus for 3 years. total Around £10,300.

 

You can get nice £20,000 cars for the £54.25 a week fixed for the 3 years, no deposit to maybe £199.

so £8465-£8664 for the 156 weeks.

 

Anyone that receives DLA HR Mobility Component or PI would be spending their own money on anything they want to, not necessarily a car.,

just like anyone getting Child Benefit, Child Tax Credits or Working Tax Credits, Winter Cold weather Payment, etc is spending their own money.

Aye, but only estates because the look like hearses

Yep especially when you can get a new MQB Golf 2.0Tdi 150bhp DSG for £849 advanced Payment on Motability or 181bhp BMW 120d Sport for £1099.
