1.9 xr2 on 40's

anybody found some genuinly sweet deals scrapping inc?

my mums escort gti is getting long in the tooth and qualifies so it may be a handy time, it'll go in sitting on a milk crate on steels etc so its no real waste

shes thinking of a kia ceed or maybe a fiesta

cheers for any info

apparently you won't get a good deal on a fiesta, my neighbour tried and they sent him on his way

No good deals with the scrapage bollocks IMO. You have to pay RRP for the car to qualify which you would never pay normally, you are better going in with real money and seeing what they will offer, the proper way to buy a car!

No you don't, that's just a line from a salesman. So long as the car meets the requirements and the dealer/manufacturer is throwing in Ł1000 minimum, the government wedge in the other Ł1000.

i think its mainly for the cheaper/korean cars as i know ford only accept it on limited models (mainly mondeos and focus')

a mate of mines gf went to a suzuki dealer as she wanted to trade her car in for a swift and they werent interested either.

you will pay it back in one way! most cars are hiked up in price too, to cover it, its a big con imo!

im not stupid thats why i asked for genuinely good deals

Mates just chopped in his snotty owd Onion for a new Fiat 500 for his missus, even though there is a 4-6 week wait for the Fiat he still got his Ł2k scrappage and another Ł1k off list from the dealership.

Iain Mac

The manufacturers who have signed up to scrappage have to offer it on any car in their UK range. We've taken an old van in against a Ł108k car!

They are free to limit their discount to Ł1000 if they choose, but that is just cutting their nose off to spite their face.

nice one, good to hear a propper deal she may aswell get a car thats lists about the 10k mark, i'd think theres a g or more to get knocked off before the scrap money at that level

Did i say you were stupid then?

Just my opinion being in the trade many years and knowing a lot of dealers thats all.

As for deals its down to the independant dealer really shop about there are deals out there.

I see!

Suzuki are doing some good deals, and the new Swift is a great car imo, very well built, Kia have it in the bag too with them warranty deals, who can beat 7 year!

Big G

What kind of sane person would want to buy a Kia?
