My mum has had a car through the motability scheme for years. Now that she no longer drives she has decided to send back the car (she has nowhere to keep it now and we hate it) and we are going to trade in our own car for a 7 seater so we can all go out together. She is planning on giving us the motability allowance she will get to go towards the car loan. This way we end up with the car at the end and we can get a bigger car to fit her in. Otherwise we wouldn't actually need the car at all as we have a landrover, but she can't get in that. This way everyone will benefit.
However she is really vague about how much the allowance is. She said she thought it was about £90 per month but I just can't beleive you get everything on the motability scheme for that! I suspect thats what it was when she first started on the scheme but presumably its gone up quite a lot now. At a risk of sounding selfish we need to know what she will get as it dictates how much WE can afford to pay towards the loan.
I've had a look on google but can't find anything about amounts. Can anyone help me?
