    I'm sorry, but how can a pregnancy be unplanned...?!

    because i was taking the pill...... but as i said my son was born very sick, premature and he was close too death, obviously i either forgot too take one or they failed.... .... you do know nothing is 100% unless you do not have intercourse, dont you.... seen as you are full of useful help and info i thought you would know that

    grow up, and have a bit of !!!!in compasion, if you go through what i did, loosing your mum your minds everywhere.... you ask how it can be un-planned, well as everyone knows, no contraception 100% so obviously thats how there are lots of un planned... your responses are neither helpful, nor funny or smart, looks too me lke you like the attention, and thrive on causing arguments and debates, well good for you, glad your lifes so intresting that this is your way off entertaining yourself.

    Yes they will, i had a ford focus, we then had our 4th child and could not fit in the car, phoned motobility told them our situation and we were able to get a 7 seater had to pay a £250 cancellation fee. If you are on benefits ask about a grant they help towards the down payment we got a Seat Alhambra and they paid the £2000 deposit for us.

    thankyou everyone for your help, and just ignore that harveybobbles....pmsl.... love the name....he/she just thriving on the attention...so dnt give. really a grant, who did you ask about that xxxx

    There should be some information on the motability website about the grant.

  • We had our car for 2 years and we needed to change it for a more suitable vehicle. We contacted Motobility and they told us the first 'change' was free as they understood that the first vehicle you get might not be right for you and that disabilities can change/get worse so need a more suitable vehicle, however if you want to change it again within the 3 year contract they will charge you £250.
  • check out mobility website as up front payments can be quite hefty - several thousand pounds, and this is EVER 3 yrs - not very economical.

    You can also use the mobility money to buy a used car - might make more sense for you in the long run.

    Congrates on the birth of your children - glad to hear she is doing well!

    You might be better with a bigger 7 seater - like a galaxy or voyager.
    Volxwagon do a neat mini van - my neighbour has this for her wheelchair bound son - she puts down the rear ramps and he
    drives his wheelchair right in - he loves it! and so does my neighbours back. She used to struggle with a sling contraption, till
    he got too big for her to lift.
