I see that a few scrap dealers are trying to earn a bit of cash from the cars scrapped, I asume this is legal as long as you only strip the cars for parts. But a few bargains to be had

Is such a shame to see adverts like this:

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/1994-AUDI-COU...66:2|39:1|72:1683|240:1318|301:1|293:1|294:50

it is sickening.

a little bit of work and they could have got over £2k private

it reminds me of an 1987 quattro i nearly bought for £300 which was mint but had no clutch, the owner had broken down in it and had gone to a garage who said it wasnt worth fixing (when it was). i didnt buy it, its now been scrapped

a lot of what i deem as decent cars will be lost to the scrappage scheme

Oh. I'm glad they're selling them though, rather than crushing them whole which is what I thought they had to do.

Could get a 4x4 for off road use and a bit of fun

Ashame they don't do this with all scrappage scheme cars

well i supose technicaly you could find a shell of another car and use everything from one of these to fill it

True. Things like that classic car that seller has for sale though. Can never go back on the road again. Thats criminal!

Museum time so some me thinks

considering we are supposed to be pro-environment recycling etc i hate the scrappage scheme. its a waste of good cars. when i first heard that they were doing it i thought it was more of an incentive to get less economical cars off the road and get low engined more economical on the road. i didnt know it was just to boost the car sales market

Wait till you see wha the yanks do for their scrappage scheme.

Only CAT A/B write off's I thought

Which scrappage isn't, but DVLA won't re-issue V5.

they must have a cod on though, a cod is same as cat b

Same seller has 2000 (w) Punto mk2 1.2 ready to strip now

What, scrappage car's

COD is only cert of chasis distruction though. CAT B hasn't got to be distructed whole.

As far as I'm aware, CAT A, distucted whole, CAT B, chasis can't go back on the road again but parts can.

These scrappage cars sold are sold and new keepers told they can't go back on road, and that the DVLA won't reissue V5C hence, stopping them from going on the road again. Hence complying by the chasis not going back on the road again?

cod hasn't got to be distructed whole either. but must be detoxed, means that if its found back on the road the person who issued the cod is in a whole lot of trouble

Oh right, and scrappage defo involves COD being issued then? Dunno how they get away with it then.
