Got PIP with the enhanced rate of the mobility component? Boom. You can lease a car, scooter, or wheelchair. The grant part? You pay your PIP mobility payment straight to Motability. They cover the car’s insurance, tax, and breakdown cover. You don’t even see the money.
Here’s the quirky bit. You can also get a WAV—a Wheelchair Accessible Vehicle. Some look like minibuses. Others look like a Transformer’s grumpy cousin. Fancy a pink one? Go for it. Motability doesn’t judge.
But wait. What if you don’t drive? No license? No problem. You can still use the grant to pay for taxi rides. The scheme lets you hire a private driver. Or get a powerchair that tackles curbs like a tiny tank.
