Just to let you know they are discussing motability issues on the forum at https://www.uhad2bthere.co.uk Apparently they have got a chap you can ask about the Motability Scheme.
If i remember rightly they wanted the going rate so it wasn't really a bargain.
It was all pretty straightforward and you get a years warranty with the car.
From what the Motability sales guy told my mum when we were looking at her new Motability car, with cars that are returned to the dealer at the end of the contract, if the customer does not wish to purchase it, then the dealer can buy the car if they want to. If not, then they are put on some sort of Motabilty Dealer website where other Motability dealers can look and see if they want to buy the car.
If no other dealer wants the car then it goes off to auction.
A few people have told mum that if you can follow your old car to auction you are likely to pay less for it than to buy it direct from Motability.
