Its crazy isnt it.That's my point. There is a set limit on the component which gets you a little 2 door car. Anything bigger involves the recipient using their own money and not taxpayers
He gets picked up in a taxi each morning for college and dropped home after.And bear in mind that these cars are only to be used for the benefit of the person on PIP.
Anyone using it for anything else (I have no doubt some do) is driving uninsured.
Audi Q7 isn’t available on Motability, so they obviously just pay for it themselves.Have a look at motability and see what a Q7 costs per month. I can guarantee it will be nowhere near enough and the family will be topping it up.
edit; I've looked and its all the allowance plus around 4k downpayment.
Austerity 2.0 with labour currently.
Yeah but we've really maxed out on the credit card this time said a Tor... erm... Labour supporter yesterday.Austerity 2.0 with labour currently.
I'm not sure that's right. It is for blue badges though.And bear in mind that these cars are only to be used for the benefit of the person on PIP.

Well if they're spending their own money i don't see what your problem is?Its crazy isnt it.
Not only forgo the monetary benefit as they dont need the money and opt for motorbility, they then put a hefty amount of that motorbility amount towards a top of the range car
Also, the lad gets picked up in a taxi each morning to be taken to college and taken home after so the car isnt even used for that
How is it right? Make it make sense
That they get a car largely funded by tge tax payer.Well if they're spending their own money i don't see what your problem is?
They pay a % themselvesAudi Q7 isn’t available on Motability, so they obviously just pay for it themselves.
It will be rebranded with some positive phrase like "Nation rebuilding"Wait for it not being classed as austerity because it’s not ideological
I see the Guardian is describing it as the largest spending cuts since austerity.Wait for it not being classed as austerity because it’s not ideological

Defence spending = The new Black hole .I see the Guardian is describing it as the largest spending cuts since austerity.
Quite impressive, but merely limbering up I think before the real mental gymnastics kick off next week.
And don't pay tax or insurance. Annoys the hell out of me.If theyre are going for the malingerers and scivers … fuckin GOOD!!!
And the ones that dont need it … GOOD!!!
I know a bloke, £600k house in an affluent area. Does ok money wise. Has a 19 autistic son (wouldnt swap for the world) and gets benefits for him. Why? But .. as he doesnt need the money they can opt for a motorbility car instead. Not only that , because they have a few quid they put towards the money they receive and have a brand new Q7 on the drive.
What the fuck ?
Why?And don't pay tax or insurance. Annoys the hell out of me.
