Renewing your Motability vehicle at the end of your current lease agreement can be an exciting time. After all, with a wide range of high-quality Mercedes-Benz vehicles available as part of the Motability Scheme, you can expect quality, sophistication and style.
Most Motability Scheme leases run for three years and, so long as you have at least 12 months’ award length remaining, you can renew your Motability contract with ease. There are several things to think about during the runup to your existing lease expiring. So, here’s a handy timeline to help you feel organised.

Our specialist Motability team will be happy to answer any questions you may have.
