Re: Scrappage Scheme
Aye, that was up a few weeks ago at £2000, still a little over priced at £1500 but atleast it's not getting scrapped. If I had any form of disposable income i'd be half tempted to throw in an offer.

Re: Scrappage Scheme
My guess is that the owner died and the landy was past to a family member. No enthusiast, as the owner of that series seems to be by looking at the landy, would scrap a vehicle they had owned for 20 years with the scrappage scheme. The fact that they have an MOT makes all the scrappage scheme victims too good to scrap.

Re: Scrappage Scheme
First time I have ever seen "4 wheel Drive" highlighted as a 'safety feature'... 
Guy in the pic looks every inch the car salesman though, don't he?

You obviously haven't looked at enough Landys on ebay
He should have added to the safety features, towbar and 2.25 diesel engine

I don't think it will be a major trauma to them they are main dealers for Skoda, VW, Fiat, Citroen, Vauxhall, Saab, Nissan and Volvo, service centres for Ford and Chevrolet and have 7 sites in total.

Re: Scrappage Scheme
Im not sure how they can sell it for £1500 i thought that any scrappage car can be bought back but must have the full £2000 payed on it so they must be making a loss.

Re: Scrappage Scheme
I think their original listing said they hadn't completed the paperwork for the Scheme and just wanted to get something back.
