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.
