About Southern Mobility Vehicles
Southern Mobility Vehicles was born in 2007 after an acquaintance of Peter Zanelli suffered a debilitating illness. Before the illness, she had been active and engaged with life; this unexpected life event changed everything.
The task was to find a suitable means to get her out and about more and prevent her from silently staring through a care home window all day. After considerable research and a long search, a wheelchair accessible vehicle was found and bought.
The change in lifestyle this mode of transport brought changed her view on life. Peter never looked back and decided that his 40 years in the motor trade and previous vehicle conversion experience would be directed towards WAVs. Peter is still the managing director and passionately involved to this day.

Our Proposition to you
Here at Southern Mobility Vehicles, we firmly believe that everyone who contacts us should know what to expect from us in advance.
We want you to be sure that you have chosen the right company to deal with during difficult and uncertain times. Our Proposition is what we are, how we deliver that and of course, what’s in it for you, our customer.

Helping you to find your WAV
We offer independent advice on how you can acquire a wheelchair or scooter accessible vehicle. However, we do need to ascertain your needs and wants. Firstly, we will establish if you qualify for the Motability Scheme.
Then, we will identify if WAV rental is an option and compare how WAV ownership could look for you. We know all the vehicles available and how the different conversions work; our expertise may save you a lot of time and stress.
Our mission is to identify and recommend the best possible WAV or WAVs for you and whether you should lease, rent, finance, or buy. We help people to help themselves; we are not here to tell you what to do. There is no obligation, and our advice is free.
