We all know that the motor trade is, in the main, far less than honest in the way it does so called "deals"; so you can expect the scrappage scheme discount to only be applied to the full list price of whichever cars they want to shift [/U]

If they are allowed to do this then maybe I'll give it a miss. I know what car I fancy and I won't allow them to use that against me and talk me into buying a car I don't want just because that's the only model included in the scheme.

You will get any model you want.

But you won't get a deal. You will get the 2k for the part exchange and thats it.

Which means you will be paying a few k more than the price of a 6 month old one, and considering ford have put their price up 5% twice in the last 3 months and other dealers have followed, you won't be saving much at all compared to what you would have paid in say January.

I don't know. There was some V good deals in the Sunday paper this week.
Vauxhall had 0% over 4 years as well. Times are hard for some dealers, I recon if you were in the mood for a new one, you could find a good deal. Just look at Bristol from the M5 when you drive past. Millions of unsold cars
