About Motability

How does it work?

Motability is an independent not-for-profit organisation begun in 1978 to give disabled people access to safe, reliable and affordable cars. Motability meant 'goodbye' to the cramped, light blue one seater with no space for passengers or the fourth wheel! Now you can lease a new vehicle from Perrys - Winners of the Motability Award for Best Dealer Group - and other reputable dealers and manufacturers, and enjoy safe and comfortable travel.

Perrys is a Premier Partner of Motability and so stock a wide range of top quality cars by many leading brands for you and your family to choose from., our expert team give you the time and space to think seriously before deciding what type of car suits you best.

Motability Advisor

Our Perrys’ Motability Advisors steer you through the purchase process. We’ll help you choose the scheme, check your eligibility and order the car to fits your lifestyle. Call your local Perrys showroom to make an appointment.

At the meeting we’ll complete a Motability Vehicle Suitability Questionnaire with you, arrange a comprehensive test drive and if, for example, you use a wheel chair we’ll check it fits in the car you have chosen. Do ask our Advisors any questions to help you make the right decision.

Adapting Your Vehicle

If you need special adaptations to drive safely or have a comfy ride as a passenger, Motability provides a list of available models suitable for adaptations. Perrys help you source the car of your choice. Our quarterly Car Price Guide from Motability gives you the cost of more than 60 popular adaptations.

Motability have recently enhanced the scheme further as there are now a number of adaptations now included in your advance payment, offering you a further saving. Speak to your local Perrys Motability Advisor for further information.

Ethical Driving

Carbon Dioxide is one of the main emissions from petrol or diesel. It’s a major greenhouse gas contributing to climate change. In keeping with Perrys ethical approach we’ll be happy to give you information on cars with low emissions.
