Where can i buy a car with hand controls only?

Toys'r'UsWhere can i buy a car with hand controls only?
I think you will need at least some cash!!!Where can i buy a car with hand controls only?
try a a car show room that does mobility cars
Have you first tried talking to motability operations about this? There is a company www.gowringsmobility.co.uk who specialise in converting vehicles for the disabled. They would probably be your best bet.
You would normally need to get a car modified for you
Buy any car and have them fitted yourself
At a model shop?





You'd have to get one specailly adapted.
contact your local rehab department they will suply you with a kit and have it installed for you





no one builds them as there isnt a market for them all the ones you see have the kits installed in them
u can't , u have to take a normal car to a specialist in doing this modification, try yellow pages
Good Question !!!!!





But I dont know the answer sorry
You would have to go to a coach builder who does disability and handicapped vehicle conversions.
be more specific
i think you buy a car and put them on your self.
Most major car dealerships, will work with you to get a vehicle made to your specifications for disabilities etc.. If you are wanting to purchase a used vehicle try the autotrader.com


Good Luck
such vehicles are custom made for those who are handicapped and are in need of alternative ways of being mobile. if funding is an issue, you maybe able to find help thoughout the community.





the link below is a website that sells used vehicles... perhaps that might be useful as a start.
If your UK then talk to your local council ..they should be able to advise you where the local Motability schemes are.A vehicle can be adapted for most peoples needs.good luck!
I don't know of any car supplier who has hand controlled cars. As far as I know you have to have this done as a special and this will depend on what sort of hand controls you want. I did enquire about 10 years ago about a hand clutch and got quoted 拢250 which I thought was a rip off but to be fair it is a limited market so very much all hand done. My engineer and myself sorted it out and it cost 拢1


there are mobility specialists in yellow pages who will quote you
Contact Motability first - motability.co.uk
You can't normally but them off the shelf. There are companies that install hand-controls for disabled drivers.


You can find a reputable fitter via the charitable organisation Motability.
my friend had a leg removed and he had to get his car adapted with hand controls at the garage. do you know it only took an hour or so to do the work. dont how much it cost though cause he was on the mobility scheme. it`s easy done though.
