The vehicle discount or
‘scrappage’ scheme is a voluntary scheme for motor
dealers. If a dealer joins they’ll give you £2,000 off a
new vehicle if you let them scrap your old one. The scheme
will run from mid May 2009 to March 2010, depending on
whether its fixed budget runs out sooner.
How to take advantage of the vehicle discount scheme
Contact your local dealer to see if they have joined the
vehicle discount scheme. They will check that your vehicle
and the new vehicle you want to buy both meet the rules of
the scheme. When the sale is agreed, the dealer will sort
out the paperwork and arrange for your vehicle to be
scrapped.
The discount is deducted from the price you pay for the
new vehicle and will be shown on your invoice when you take
delivery of your new vehicle.

buy must meet certain conditions for you to be able to get
