Join us at one of our Motability Scheme Adapted Test Drive Days this summer

Learn about our Test Drive Days this summer, which give you the opportunity to try some of the popular driving adaptations on the Motability Scheme. Keep reading to see where these events are being held and how you can book onto one!


We’re excited to let you know we’ve just launched three Adapted Test Drive Days, which are designed to give people the chance to book test drives in cars fitted with popular driving adaptations.

What are Adapted Test Drives?

These are a fleet of cars available to test drive, which have been fitted with a variety of different driving adaptations available on the Motability Scheme, such as left foot accelerator pedals, push/pull accelerators, remote control devices and steering aids. 

Who should book an Adapted Test Drive?

If you’re new to the Scheme or are an existing Scheme customer interested in finding out more about the different driving adaptations available, then we would recommend booking a test drive.

There are a limited number of test drive slots available to book at the locations listed below, so we recommend booking early to secure your place:

  • Brands Hatch Circuit on Wednesday 2 August 2023
  • Chepstow Racecourse on Thursday 17 August 2023
  • Newcastle Falcon Rugby Club on Wednesday 23 August 2023

To find out more and to book a test drive, take a look at our adapted test drive page, please feel free to share with others who may be interested in booking an adapted test drive.

All test drives must be booked in advance – there is no option to book on the day. Please only attend if you have a test drive booked, as there are no other activities taking place.

Some of the adaptations available to try include:

  • Left foot accelerators
  • Push/pull accelerators
  • Remote control devices
  • Steering aids

For a full list of the different cars and driving adaptations available to book, visit our adapted test drive page.
