- Disabled people warn of severe consequences if the Motability car scheme’s VAT exemption is removed.
- Removing the VAT exemption could add at least £3,000 upfront to even the cheapest Motability cars.
- Disabled individuals say increased costs would threaten their independence, ability to work, attend medical appointments, and participate in society.
- Some politicians have criticized the scheme, suggesting drastic restrictions or cuts.
- Motability users stress the scheme is essential, not a luxury, and fear many would be unable to afford adapted vehicles without the exemption.
