Our fleet 

We work with manufacturers to give our customers the widest choice of makes and models that suit their needs.

These vehicles are leased to our customers with our full, worry-free package to ensure they’re kept on the road. At the end of the lease, a customer can choose another vehicle and we remarket the vehicles at the best possible price and any profit made is invested into disabled mobility.

Securing customer choice

We have longstanding relationships with vehicle manufacturers so we can offer our customers a wide choice of makes and models at good value. We work closely with them to understand production plans and new vehicle launch cycles so we can build a quarterly price list that reflects the very latest vehicle availability in the marketplace. As the UK transitions to electric, we are working with innovation partners to ensure the unique needs of our customers are taken into account.

The latest pricing

Every three months, we renegotiate our prices so we can react quickly to changes in the automotive supply chain and offer good value from each manufacturer. When we renegotiate Scheme pricing, we factor in cost changes to:  

  • Customer allowance

  • Insurance premiums

  • Service, maintenance and repair budgets

  • Residual values 

The prices we offer to our customers are 45% cheaper, on average, than alternative leasing packages. 

Search our current vehicles

We work to provide our customers with a consistently excellent experience to make choosing a vehicle accessible, inclusive and worry-free. We work with dealer groups to ensure showrooms have disability-confident employees available to support customers in finding the most suitable car for their needs, in a comfortable and accessible environment. 

Worry-free mobility

As part of our worry-free package, we work with our dealer partners to deliver servicing, maintenance and repairs on the vehicles throughout the lease period, so our customers can enjoy a seamless leasing experience.

Getting ready for resale

At the end of the lease, our customers can exchange their vehicle for a brand-new model. Our dealer partner completes a vehicle condition review and based on this, the vehicle is routed directly to sale or to one of our refurbishment sites at Coalville or Corby. 

Across these refurbishment centres, we assess or recondition around 50,000 of the 250,000 vehicles that come back to us every year after being leased on the Scheme. This brings them up to our trade standard and ready for resale through one of our three channels.
