It is possible to purchase a new vehicle at zero rated VAT if the vehicle is fitted with an adaptation prior to it being registered to yourself.
For a vehicle to be sold VAT free the following conditions apply;
1) The vehicle must be substantially and permanently adapted.
2) The disabled person must use a wheelchair in order to be mobile(a person with a degenerative condition who only uses a wheelchair when the condition requires it also qualifies as a wheelchair user).
Autochair Limited have worked with thousands of car dealers adapting the vehicle prior to it being registered and have saved the customer the VAT on the vehicle itself. This VAT saving can then go towards the cost of the adaptation.
