Peugeot Expert Tepee for a wheelchair

Bob_Bridges

Looking to buy a Peugeot Expert Tepee for a wheelchair user.
Would be grateful if anyone can share any opinions/reviews/prices etc.

Have been looking at a few companies - Allied Mobility and Constables are a couple to mention - if anyone has experience of these two, I'd like to hear.

Many thanks in advance, Bob

We had the Peugeot teepee horizon with an advanced payment of £695 off allied mobility last September and it's a god send, the company is brilliant, they brought one to the hospital for me to test with the wheelchair as my husband was in there at the time, from start to delivery was 17 days were as others were saying 16 week wait and advanced payment of £1400

Bob,

It may also be worth checking out the Citroen Berlingo Multispace as base models available from converters as the Berlingo Multispace is exactly the same vehicle as the Peugeot Partner Tepee. Both are made on the same production line in the same factory. The only difference is the badge and the standard specifications for the vehicles, although the converters often offer things over and above the standard specs (such as air conditioning etc).

Overall it is worth looking at both vehicles to see which has the better specification for you and what the advance payment is from the different converters. Also the Fiat Doblo is a 'cousin' vehicle, again badged differently so is worth checking what converters have available on that base vehicle.

Having had to recently move from a standard road car to a WAV, I found it paid dividends checking out the model I was interested in from a whole range of converters, then finding the one which best fitted my needs best and checking that vehicles advance payment from the differing converters. The advance payments can and do vary due to adaptions such as manual versus electric ramps, standard versus lowering suspension etc. As you will have the vehicle for the five year lease term, it is important to get it right.

Also bear in mind if you wish to drive the vehicle yourself, a ‘drive from wheelchair’ vehicle maybe the best option but these are generally very expensive on the scheme. An alternative cheaper option maybe a standard vehicle with a powered hoist to lift the empty wheelchair into/out of the vehicle.

In the end I recently ordered a WAV as I don’t need to drive it. I went for the Allied Peugeot Partner ‘S’ as it had all I needed plus a nil advance payment.

Thanks for the replies, much appreciated.

Always knew I would have to shop around.
Base vehicle looks pretty reliable - quite a few ex-taxis with over 100,000 miles on the clock, so hopefully reliability won't be a problem.

Thanks again, all the best, Bob
