Vauxhall has announced the reintroduction of its Scrappage Allowance Scheme.
The programme offers customers £2,000 (including VAT) towards a new Vauxhall when they trade in their old vehicle. The deal can be combined with the manufacturer’s finance offers including Personal Contract Payment plans and with finance deposit contributions. The scheme will operate for selected new models ordered and registered before 30th June 2017. The new cars covered are the ADAM, Corsa, Meriva, Astra and Mokka X models.
Leon Caruso, Vauxhall’s Retail Sales Director commented: “Our ever popular Scrappage Allowance Scheme is back, this time with a guaranteed trade-in value of £2,000. Not only can customers potentially swap their older, often higher polluting car for a cleaner, more efficient brand new Vauxhall, but they can also use scrappage in conjunction with some of Vauxhall’s other great finance offers.”
Vauxhall is working with Autogreen’s recycling programme, to identify any cars manufactured prior to 1991 that are presented through the scheme and inform Vauxhall’s Luton HQ. Relevant owners’ clubs will then be notified, giving them the opportunity to purchase parts through the Authorised Treatment Facility.
Simon Hucknall, PR Manager for Vauxhall Product and Heritage commented: “Vauxhall has immense respect for the UK’s classic car groups, irrespective of what make or model they support. The Scrappage Allowance is designed to capture vehicles that are beyond economical repair, and given the low value of scrap metal, recycling of parts is vital to the scheme’s viability. We’re also confident that the number of genuine classics over 25 years old presented to the scheme will be minimal, especially given the steady rise in value of even the most mainstream collectors’ cars in recent years. But if we do see any, our ‘safety-net’ will ensure that classic car owners and clubs will benefit.”
