![]() But surely, the scrappage scheme is only going to be good for those people who have the money to change their cars?
When the last scrappage scheme was in place, I don't know of anyone that changed their car because they were going to get a couple of grand. Everyone that changed cars were probably going to do that anyway. Even if I had the money to be able to change my car, I wouldn't as I need a tourer to carry stuff and dogs and I like my 75, and due to doing a fair mileage, have a diesel. So unless they are going to give me money to buy a replacement (as well as the scrappage money), they can 'stick' it where the sun don't shine!! ![]()

![]() Looks like the scrappage scheme is not on the cards for now.
Seen in Auto Express MPs call for diesel scrappage scheme and VED reforms MPs had called on the Government to consider a diesel scrappage scheme and introduce a nitrogen oxide-based vehicle excise duty (VED) but Osborne steered clear of the area in his Spending Review. A report from the Environmental Audit Committee published in response to the Government's draft plans to improve air quality in the UK had called on the changes with MPs believing a diesel scrappage scheme and including NOx alongside CO2 to determine VED bands would encourage drivers out of the most polluting diesel vehicles. |
