Is there any scrappage scheme for old cars?

Hi Paula,

No, not an official government one. Many of the car makers do have some very tempting 'scrap-ish' trade-in offers around at the moment. Opel, for instance, is offering trade-ins of up to €4,000 against some models while Nissan has a similar offer. Have a shop around and make sure you read the terms and conditions on all the offers though.
