The worrying thing is that was it not the case that they had to be road worthy when chopped in? Even in 2009 Who the hell would scrap a beta fulvia or integrale for a £2k discount that they could have saved anyway by buying a prereg or a no part ex discount? (Or flogging the car!)

Considering the numbers involved it's hardly worth worrying about!

Probably right but some folks must have been barmy at the time!

Interesting to see they scrapped lots of Citreons a few Citoeons and even one Sitreon.

You get the impression it wasn't exactly policed carefully.

I hope that some of the cars scrapped had very hooky MOTs. If they were genuinely roadworthy they didn't deserve to die.

I know a chap who works at the local Subaru dealership who was mortified at the cars that were being chopped in and scrapped.  he even tried to buy a couple and keep one for off-roading but the scheme insisted that they were destroyed :(

Mark W managed to get the Spider from the scrap yard, under the condition it was sold for parts (which he did)  ;D
