There are two different schemes available: Contract Hire and Hire Purchase. The most popular option is the Contract Hire scheme. The differences are listed below. If you’re not sure which one would suit you best, contact our Motability Specialist who will be more than happy to help you choose. They'll also be able to process the application and organise all the paperwork for you.
This is probably the most straightforward and flexible option. You simply assign your allowance to Motability and get a brand new car every three years. Your allowance covers most of the running costs. All you have to do is fill your car with fuel.
Your agreement includes:
There are many vehicles available at no additional cost to your allowance, but if you do want a higher specification vehicle or one of our larger cars, you will need to pay an additional one-off ‘Advance Payment’ when you sign for your new vehicle.
You’ll prefer the Hire Purchase scheme if you would rather own your car, rather than replace it every three years. You make a one-off payment, worked out between you and your Haynes advisor at the beginning of the term, and then use your HRMC-DLA to finance the balance. At the end of the term, you own the car.
With this option, you can take advantage of any savings or promotions being run by Ford when you sign for your new vehicle. We'll make all the necessary arrangements to transfer your allowance to pay for your car. Of course, you have to organise the insurance, breakdown cover, tax discs, servicing and repairs, just like for any other private car.
