 Scrappage. - RattleandSmoke
Its the end of March 31st, but there is now less than 45,000 places left on it. I want to buy a car through this scheme but I have a horrible feeling it will end before my car will qualify (I haven't owned it a year till the 27th).

Hydunai are doing a good offer, £2k of any new car, Vauxhall are doing £3k of any car but their retail prices are mad anyway. £8K for a bog spec Agila with no central locking or electric windows?

Nissan are doing a good offer on their British built cars, £2k swappge that puts the basic Micra down to £6600.

Your car must also be no near than a V reg. W regs do not qualify even if they are ten years old. When I spoke to the government agency they told me a lot of people are trying to trade in W regs atm and they reckon they might see a dip in sales in March however I think many people will just realise its the last chance and there will be a surge meaning I can't qualify.

Have a look at this link for my details.
