I am coming to the end of my second lease on the Motability scheme.  The perfect car for me was the Hyundai ix2o and had NIL advance.  My second car was the same (different colour) again NIL advance ..  I am looking to have the same again but noticed the Advance is now £599.  Does that still apply if I am still having the same car but newer
Regards

    Hi,

    Yes i'm afraid the advance payment will apply and will need to be paid on collection of the car, if that's the car of your choice. There's lots of other cars available with no advance payments if you'd rather not pay that much.
    I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.
    If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help.
