Hiya everyone..

So last November my mobility car lease was comin to an end but I got a 6 month extension.

I read that due to Covid-19 all mobility cars are to be given an extension.

I was wonderin if I’d get a further extension..

Anybody know before I try to ring them. Any info/help would be much appreciated 😁

I the only time I have needed to keep a scheme longer was while I was waiting for the replacement to arrive.

Most if not all car showrooms are closed due to Covid-19 I believe

A lot of show rooms and garages are open "by appointment".

My daughter's car needed the brakes fixed and was originally told the service department was closed. Then she asked if they knew of garage was open as she needed it for her work in the NHS. They collected her car and fixed the brakes free of charge but also because her personal lease was due they sorted out a new lease and car.

Unusually my last 3 scheme cars have all been Seats. I have driven virtually every mainstream car make and never purchased the same brand of car in succession before. My last one got hit by a supermarket delivery vehicle which knocked it 95 feet down the road. The only damage was the boot lid and bumper !

Yes, I saw that on the website. I don't suppose they lowered the monthly cost due to having an older car ?

When I replaced my previous vehicle the replacement wasn't ready and had to wait two months, so they extended the current lease to cover it. Mine was only 2 months but yours will be 9 !
