SCRAPPED FOR CASH!

Vauxhall Celebrates Success of Scrappage Scheme With £2,000 Giveaway

Del Boy and David Dickinson will be praising British bargain hunters today, as research from Vauxhall reveals that over 150,000 old bangers have been scrapped for a cash bonus towards a younger model.

According to the research, London is driving the cars for cash scheme with almost one in ten owners upgrading their wheels, compared to Cornwall and East Anglia where only 1% of drivers have scrapped their cars.

To mark London taking the title of the Banger Capital of Britain, Vauxhall has created the first ever Cash Car – an Astra encrusted with £2,000 worth of loose change. The car, which is covered from boot to bonnet in bona-fide British mint was mobbed today by hundreds of commuters at Liverpool Street station, eager to pocket some free cash.

Simon Ewart from Vauxhall Motors added, “We fully support the scrappage scheme and feel that the first ever Cash Car is a great way to bring to life the benefits of trading in your old car for a newer, safer and more environmentally friendly model. Hopefully, we gave commuters more than they bargained for on their journey to work this morning!”

£2K BANGERS FOR CASH DISCOUNT TOPS VAUXHALL’S SUMMER DEAL BONANZA

• Vauxhall embraces UK Government’s Scrappage Programme
• Buyers benefit from a minimum £2k discount on all Vauxhall cars and commercials
• Supplementary offers, such as 5% cash back and 0% finance, boost discounts further

Luton - Vauxhall gave its wholehearted support today to the Government’s Scrappage Programme, and confirmed that it would roll out the £2,000 discount across its full range of car and commercial vehicles, while maintaining all its existing finance offers – and some additional discounts, too.

Astra buyers, for example, will now benefit from not only a straight £2,000 discount across any car in the range, but also Vauxhall’s ‘You Pay, We Pay’ deal on eligible models, which gives them five per cent cash back on the amount financed, combined with nought per cent finance for up to four years, and free redundancy cover.

And if that weren’t enough, buyers who plump for the British-built Astra Life 1.4 hatchback receive a £3,870 ‘Scrap and Save’ discount from participating dealers, in addition to the £2,000 scrappage discount, reducing the price to £8,995 – a total saving of £5,870 off the recommended retail price.

Other Vauxhall models have also combined existing offers with the scrappage discount to make some of the most tempting new car buys on the market. All Zafiras, Merivas and Tigras benefit from the ‘You Pay, We Pay’ cash back, while the Corsa range retains nought per cent finance for three years on all its models. For extra peace of mind, all buyers who finance their purchase through GMAC receive free redundancy cover.

And for those buyers who thought that a new Vauxhall was just out of reach, the great news is that the recently launched Agila range now starts at £6,995 for the generously equipped Club 1.0i ecoFLEX model, after participating dealers apply a special £2,430 ‘Scrap and Save’ discount, which includes the regular £2,000 scrappage discount .

Best of all, for those buyers who take up the scrappage scheme, Vauxhall retailers will be happy to handle all the paperwork for them, including the arrangements for their old car to be scrapped.

‘There’s never been a better time to buy a new Vauxhall,’ said Andy Gilson, Vauxhall’s Marketing Director. ‘Now we’ve fully embraced the Government’s Scrappage Programme, Vauxhall’s customers will be able to cash in on some of the best new car deals available in the UK.’

Notes

The £2000 Government Scrappage Allowance towards a new car or commercial is offered on condition that the traded-in vehicle has been registered on or before August 31, 1999, and has been registered in the name of the new car buyer for at least one year. The registration document must also show the current name and address of the new car buyer. A valid MOT, as well as current road tax and insurance must also be presented to the participating retailer.

All vehicles will be scrapped (and recycled) in accordance with Vauxhall's end-of-life policy. A certificate of destruction will be issued against every vehicle scrapped under this programme.
