I've been doom-reading about the changes to the #motability scheme.

Sacha's car is on the #motabilityscheme due to her multiple disabilities and is essential for her wellbeing.

I honestly don't know how much I'm reading is paranoia or is actually going to affect us.

We are in the fortunate position that, if push came to shove, we could afford to go onto a standard lease, but it would take a few sacrifices, and I suspect insurance costs might be high (let alone the stress of the annual renewal dance).

We'll find out when her renewal comes along (assuming the Reform Company don't get elected and they decide to put down the disabled population).

Sigh.

That's me finally ordered the #Kia #EV4 Air trim today, went for blue, the red was a bit too dark. Collection date is 30th June when my current #Motability lease comes to an end on my #Hyundai #Kona.

I'd say if yer on the #MotabilityScheme and able to order yer next vehicle now, get to yer local KIA dealer before Wednesday 1st April, when the advance payment is due to change. Given the popularity o this vehicle, I'm expecting that to increase. Don't forget to give it a test drive!

There's several factual errors and biased interpretations in this article.
