The Winners and Losers of the Scrappage Scheme
The scrappage scheme has save thousands of jobs and thousands of companies from going under. Well that is what we are told from the media, but things are not all dandy and there are a few people that have missed out. So lets take a look at the winners and the losers of the scrappage scheme.
Normal People
Everyone is celebrating the governments around the world, simply about the way that they saved the public cash on new vehicles. But the deal is not that good as its something that you could have genuinley got from the dealer, especially when they are trying to shift cars during the economic crisis.
Earth
We all know that we are damaging the planet a huge amount and most of this is caused by old cars that are not eco friendly. By trading your old automobile in for a new one you are essentially help save the environment as newer models of vehicles tend to emit much less CO2.
Now let us take a look at the more negative
Luxury Cars
The scrappage scheme has been superb for cars such as ford or Honda. But for the higher end of things such as the BMW or Mercedes are still losing out a bit, this is because £2000 is really not going to help if you are spending around thirty thousand for your vehicle.
Used Car Market
Used car salesmen that I have come across are literally fuming, simply because of the fact that they have lost a high percentage of the used cars market because of the scrappage scheme. I mean who would realistically want to purchase a used car when they can purchase a new car for around the same price.
