To the joy of middle class people everywhere, who can continue to trade in third cars for brand new cars (Because lets face it, skint people who run a banger because its all they can afford cannot afford a new car even with scrappage), the scrappage scam has been extended. Your tax money can continue to save people who fancy a brand new Korean car money! Excellent news.

Also good to hear is that you can now scrap cars made in 2000 under the scheme so if you are sick of that banger of a Ferrari 360 or your V plate Toyota Celica, perhaps that shonky old Honda S2000, you to can force it to be scrapped.
Did anyone see this weeks Autocar? 2 page spread on the cars being scrapped under scrappage. They included:
Mint condition 1997 Mercedes E320 with 80k miles
Mercedes CLK320
Mk4 Golf
20k mile Honda Civic ESi
18k mile Rover 800 on a T plate - the last made.
Numerous other mint perfectly serviceable cars.
Sigh.
Hyundai will be happy.
