Moin Moin! I would like to ask the question: Why are modifications and such things only promoted on almost new cars? Background: With me about a year ago it was in the room that I needed a vehicle with automatic transmission. During the research at that time we came across that there is only support for (almost) new cars. Since we have almost no free financial resources, we would have been dependent on a subsidy, the regulations of the promotion leave so pretty much no There would have been a promotion only for cars that were still worth at least 50% of the (list) new price and the maximum promotion is 9500 €. There is no car fit in that meets my minimum requirements. Luckily, I don’t need an automatic car today, that’s why it’s done for now. But I’m still busy: What if not? Besides, the need can come back at any time P.S.: That my demands are not too a The fact that I bought a car for 1000 € this year, which easily handles the fulfilment of my minimum requirements for a more expensive car, is proven by the fact that I bought a car for 1000 €.

Good day, I move with my parents into a house of my own, next to the house is a garage, which was built at the time for a Trabant and is too small for our Vectra. In front of the house the street is often fully parked, therefore we have requested a disabled parking space. I already have a disabled parking card. At the old residence there was already a disabled parking place, however, this was then privatized and should have been rented. The installation of a disabled parking space at the new place of residence was rejected on the grounds that there were parking possibilities on the property. Already during the site visit we pointed out to the clerk that the garage is too small. How could one justify a contradiction? Are there possibly minimum sizes for garages that belong to a disabled person? I am blind, so I do not need a wheelchair. The letter of refusal also states that an opposition procedure can be charged, with which costs one would have to expect? Does a contradiction pay, or does it not make sense? Could one instead apply for subsidies for the conversion of the garage? How and where? What amount could one get? Which income and wealth limits apply? The property is in Berlin, the garage and the courtyard gate must be enlarged and the entrance to the road should be widened. How much does that cost? I would be very happy about hints. Greetings Sebastian

I hope that some people here can help me with the following problem. A friend of mine has contracted a spinal cord squeezing in an accident at work. The following are more or less equivalent to a spinal cord injury. Fortunately, there are feelings and some reflexes in the left leg again. But now it is the case that according to Tüv and driving licence, when the driver’s license is tested and changed to a driving licence, the driving licence is changed to a driving licence. In the present situation, he cannot drive a truck or a motor vehicle without question and he would not do so either. On request from the competent authorities, it was only that he was allowed to “make” his driving licences again after a recovery. Has anyone ever successfully resisted this approach? or has one of you proposed a useful way of removing the vehicle’s driving licence? Is it possible to avoid driving licences and still get his registrations for a handheld operating device? After all, the new purchase is at quite high costs. I already thank you for your efforts. Greeting Thomas

Hello everyone, I would like to encourage the establishment of a cross-brand subforum for disabled vehicles / mobility for disabled people, in which people can exchange information about driving aids, techniques, conversions, experiences, possibilities, costs, financial support, disability discounts of car manufacturers, disabled-friendly rest places and destinations etc. Often further changes are made to the manufacturer’s conversions, adapted to their own spe Cific situation (and if it’s just small things), those affected could benefit from the experiences, tips and tricks of others. Individual questions about this topic appear again and again in the various subfora, but then one may not always be lucky to reach other people to a certain question, which could help you further, because they may drive other car brands. Disabled contemporaries there are many, whether it be through illness, unfaithfulness l or from birth, and especially with regard to accidents, it can meet every one of us at any time. Traffic would come about enough in my opinion; if not immediately, then surely over time. Traffic is clearly an important criterion in a forum like M-T, but doesn’t in any case have to have top priority? I personally would like to think about it – if that hasn’t happened in the past, of course I don’t know; in the I haven’t found a search function, or there’s already a subforum like this, and I just haven’t discovered it yet… .

Hello ! Would you like to switch from Audi to DC. But I get 15% discount on the disabled due to my handicap at Audi/VW. Does DC offer something similar ? Ford, Volvo, Renault etc. have such special discounts in the program, since DC would have to join in, or ? The E-Class T model would already appeal to me as a cared-for Audianer. Gruss Olaf

Hi guys, I just noticed that you can order so-called “drive aids” from the factory at Audi. These include: – Pedal cover in front of gas and brake pedal, removable – turn signal lever right – wiper lever left – steering wheel knob, small knob Through 46mm, with bracket holder on the steering wheel wreath, left – steering wheel knob, small knob Through 46mm, with bracket holder on the steering wheel wreath, right Only so for information… is this also available at other manufacturers? Greeting Sebo

Good day, I am a student at the Technical University of Munich and am currently involved in a project of the Chair of Technology and Innovation Management, in which we are looking for technical solutions that can make driving for people with physical limitations easier or more comfortable. Meanwhile, there are a variety of ways to adapt cars with the help of technical upgrades to certain mobility restrictions. I would be happy to get to know people who share this view through this forum. I am looking for people who are affected by physical restrictions while driving and have therefore developed ideas to upgrade something to your car. In addition, you have an interest in advancing the technological innovations in the field of car adjustments in cooperation with the Technical University of Munich. If you would like to contact me on this topic and share your visions and concrete ideas on car conversion with us. Best regardshttp://www.tim.wi.tum.de/

I have been driving a VW caddy for 2 months. Driving performance approx. 2000Km. On 8.9.2012 I had a breakdown in France. The brakes blocked. The VW mobility guarantee is not worth the paper on which it is written! Without the ADAC I would still be sitting in Lorraine. On the telephone of the VW mobility emergency call no one was to be reached on this Saturday. One only heard the announcement: All seats are occupied, call them again in a few minutes. drama 2nd part: The car came to a VW workshop, where the damage was examined. VW rejects the warranty because the vehicle was disabled-right rebuilt. The handheld device Zawatzky-RS and the intoxicator loader S2. The induction or conversion was carried out by the company Rausch. Why was I not informed by VW, nor by Rausch about the loss of the guarantee during conversion? This is clearly a serious failure. Also other conversion companies mentioned with no syllable, In the event of a conversion, the guarantee will be partially extinguished, so anyone who has to have his car remodelled should know that he is losing the guarantee, possibly in full!

Hello 1 year ago and 7months ago I had a traffic accident with a motorcycle and here my left lower leg had to be amputated. Therefore I now wear a lower leg prosthesis after this time. So far we still had our old car with manual gearbox, that I can no longer drive. reason, because I have no feeling for the clutch and it is dangerous to me here. So so far only my wife has driven with the car. 2days ago I bought a new car, the n I have no problems with the automatic transmission, because my right leg has no restrictions or problems and I don’t have any problems with the rest of the body. So I only have the problem with the left leg, which is not required with an automatic transmission. According to legislation, I don’t need a fitness test at the TÜV abso Since you are always obliged to drive where you do yourself and others not dangerous. That is also given with me with the automatic transmission. However, it is always better to have this test done so that you could not have any problems later in case of an accident. What would you recommend to me and has someone ever had such a test done? What costs is this? Greeting Gero

Hello and good evening I would have a question in this section Some time ago a very nice couple died in my neighborhood within a very short time. As relatives there is only one sister of the lady who lives in France. Since this lady is already quite old and could not come to Germany and we can take care of the dissolution of the rented house. To use was actually nothing we disposed of the whole house. Now we have another Since the lady was tied to the wheelchair, the man had bought a used disabled vehicle. It is a Opel Sintra 2,2 16V which was converted for the transport of a wheelchair. One can lower a ramp in the rear so that one can easily drive a wheelchair in. It is no longer the most beautiful, the ignition lock and the starter are defective. Otherwise the car is probably still in order. Do you think that one can repair the car and chew it at a fair price Is it possible to reduce the cost of decontamination and to send some money to the sister in France? Or is he supposed to find the way to the junkyard? I don’t want to earn anything but I would be happy if I could do something good to the old lady! Give me some advice! MfG Drago
