The £2,000 will be built into the wholesale price. They will get a better return on the part exes from auction than scrap...

Not at all... This round of subsidies are not government funded incentives but rather marketing ploys to shift new cars ;)

Your part ex will find itself at auction or local independent dealers...
Not according to the man from ford. They will all be crushed.
And piglets might grow up to be firemen ::)
I think he was being genuine, he categorically stated on the BBC that these cars would be 'scrapped'. I doubt very much a company like Ford would risk a media backlash. We will see.

BBC: "Ford said all of the part-exchanged vehicles will be scrapped, having an immediate effect on air quality".

It's already had an effect on air quality; the distinctive stink of pious bullshit is in the air.

I don't know, it'll probably have a (negative) effect on air quality when it's smelted down to make bean cans.. ;) (I know, such things use burners to 'burn off' the crap in an environmentally friendly manner, these days - in this country, anyway, but I bet it all gets shipped off to India or China for recycling, where they don't GAS about the environment, so the recycling is cheaper!)

Another Pile of rust awaiting on the docks north of liverpool then.

Most piles get to be higher than Paddy's wigwam and can be seen from outerspace or even from New Brighton.

Local Ford stealer has had a couple of cars[a 52 plate Corsa and a 52 plate Mondeo]stickered up saying your old car could be worth up to £4,950 as part of the scrappage scheme.Note the words could and up to. ::) AmI even remotely tempted? Errrr No ;D
