Finding an adapted vehicle can often feel more complicated than it should. Choosing the right car, understanding which adaptations are available, and coordinating between vehicle suppliers and adaptation specialists can be overwhelming, when all you really want is a solution that works for your needs. That’s why @_mobilitymotion created Adapt & Drive, a new scheme open to everyone, designed to make buying a brand-new adapted vehicle simpler, more affordable and fully tailored to the individual. And which for some customers, delivers significant savings too. ablemagazine.co.uk/new-adapt…
