I'm due to renew my car but have found out that all the 0% deposit ones are electric. The council won't give me permission for a charging point because I don't have my own parking. Electric cars are being pushed out to some of the most vulnerable people when the grid isn't ready or like me live in places where we don't have private parking so will never get a permanent charging point. I'm disabled!!? I was told that if I got an electric car it's perfectly acceptable for me to go & wait somewhere while it charges up bearing in mind they quoted a 20 minute wait for a fast charge when there isn't enough fast chargers to accommodate this so I'd be looking at a 40 minute wait. This then forced me to look at petrol or hybrid cars but the deposits are above & beyond what I have available to me because I'd need an automatic due to my arthritis. After going through the search criteria not a single car suits my needs that I can afford. One car was the size I need & the deposit was just within my range but it was a manual & with severe arthritis in my hands that's not going to work for me. How is motability meeting client needs anymore? The car I have now was £150 deposit it's now £1500, 6yrs ago a car I got was £50 deposit now over £2000. I had an estate 9 years ago it was a £50 deposit now they're over £2500. I'm willing to put my new car money towards a car so enquired to get the rest of the deposit via grant & was told no, keep the car I've got which isn't meeting my needs or go electric. At the point now where I'm going to be left car less because I don't want to keep spending my full PIP on a car that doesn't suit my needs anymore but don't have any money to buy a car to replace the motability one. Catch 22 stuck between a rock & a hard place! Date of experience: 21 November 2024
