Wheelchair Accessible Taxi Conversion for less than the €10,000 WAV16 grant.

Wheelchair Accessible Taxi Conversion for less than the €10,000 WAV16 grant.

Let's cut to the chase. If you are considering purchasing a Wheelchair Accessible Taxi for your business, it will probably be a decision which weighs heavily on the financial argument; "How much more will it cost and will it benefit my business?"

In Ireland, there were 50% more Wheelchair Accessible Taxi's in 2008 than there are today. The impact this has had on people across the country who rely on this type of transport has been significant. So significant in fact, that the government has pledged Millions of Euro over the last few years to help subsidise the industry.

McElmeel Mobility Services are doing their bit to increase the number of Wheelchair Accessible Taxis on the road by committing to a fixed price of € 8,500 for their European Type Approved Ford Custom conversion until the 31st of August. This means that you will actually be able to save against the price of a new vehicle as this conversion meets all the required terms to avail of the top level WAV16 grant of €10,000.

Phone 0044 2837 525333 today and ask Conor or Anton about how you can get a New Ford Custom for less AND have it converted for disabled passengers.

Similar conversions are available for other vehicle models.
