Good condition bonus

I have just taken out a Motability vehicle lease. My award for PIP lasts for just over 2 years so obviously it will need to be re-assessed before the car goes back. I’m just wondering, if I lose my PIP and have to hand the car back early, do I still get a good condition bonus - perhaps a reduced one as I wouldn’t have had the car for 3 years?

Just wondering as it was a struggle to get the PIP award and I am anticipating the same in 2 and a bit years.

Many thanks if anyone knows the answer.

    Hi,

    No, if you have to hand the car beck before the end of the 3 years then you will lose the good condition bonus.

    If you paid an advance payment then you may have some of that back on pro-rota basis but it will depend on how much you paid to start with.

    In the meantime enjoy your car, when you receive it.
    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.
