HC Deb 26 April 1984 vol 58 c604W
Sir David Price

asked the Chancellor of the Exchequer how much it would cost to exempt all recipients of mobility allowance from value added tax on the purchase of a motor car for their own use.

Mr. Hayhoe

Relieving all current recipients of mobility allowance of the VAT chargeable on a car costing £5,000 would reduce the revenue by about £200 million. (This estimate includes relief on cars for the benefit of recipients of mobility allowance too young to drive).
