Just like in the USA, the only reason these schemes were made is for billionaires to profit and the economy to rise. Just like in America, the people buying these new cars at inflated interest loans could not afford them and defaulted on the loans and the cars got repossessed anyway, leading them back to the used car market. All it did was make common cars exceedingly rare and more expensive.

These types of vehicles that are manufactured and is waiting to be sold, purchased by buyers, needs to be computed, inventory management should be conducted/performed in order for them to be sold, by their respective manufacturers, and to clear up space. They are created/manufactured to provide employment, and all the necessary procedures needs to be completed for them not to be declared a loss, since it is too costly for those to be declared a loss. It should be sold as is where is, and declared with proper documentation for further details for claims, insurance by the insurers. Those are to be liquidated for them to be cleared in their respective company makers books.

Having owned classic minis, a Beetle and a Land rover it's sad to see then slowly deteriorating. However one other thing I find sad is that there is a whole generation of cars that have disappeared from our roads. There are now probably less Mk1 & 2 Mondeos, Cavaliers, Sierras etc than road worthy classic Beetles, Golfs, MGBs etc. In 30 years time we may regard an early Mondeo as a classic and they will be rare! Boring maybe, but then so were Cortinas & Escorts 25 years ago.

They made sure none of them ever ran again by pouring some sort of acid into the engine to permanently disable it. Truly a sad time in auto history.

The whole scrapage scheme is a farce and there isn't any scientific evidence that shows it benefits the environment. A new car will use the equivalent to 50 barrels of oil (at 35 gallons per barrel) which would keep my 30 year old land rover defender (470,000 miles on the clock) in diesel for nearly 4 years (at 15000 miles per year). The intended design life for nearly all European cars is only 8 years and we produce over 17 million of them every year. You also have to take in to consideration that modern cars are harder to recycle with complex alloys and carbon steels as well as huge amounts of plastics and non recyclables . Just think of all those touch screens, soft close door automated tailgaters 20 speaker entertainment systems, air bags and whole host of other pointless (may be not the air bags) crap that that increase the carbon footprint of modern vehicles !

Got an absurd renewal for no reason and then because of the age of the car could not find anyone to insure it or they would give me a stupid quote to walk.

Shame if they never see the road again. Let me know what it's like now 2 years on from this video????

A restorer's paradise. Not only one, but several old Minis. This clip will have most certainly given a whole lot of free publicity.

Why not auction the cars? Under certain conditions: - 100% Road legal Restauration by x date. - Only to be sold in parts. - Only for export. Imagine how many foreign collectors or dealers would be dying to get their hands on some of the cars/ parts. US dealers make tons of money annually exporting used cars to Lain America and Africa! That inventory should be worth millions in spare parts!!! Governments and their "odd" decisions To phrase it nicely...

Well done and thank you for exposing all this. Would be lovely to get somebody who knows something about classic cars to do a voice-over.

On so many levels, scrappage was a scandal. If you remember, cars were legally required to be roadworthy at the point of trading in to qualify for the scheme and around 400,000 went through the scheme. The vast majority of these would have made perfectly respectable used cars. I remember a 2 year period back then when my local scrapyard was chock full of good roadworthy cars, a lot of them with in-date tax discs. Also, for a man who claims an entusiasm for JDM imports, he ignored and walked past a Toyota Sera, a pretty little car whose gullwing(ish) doors were the direct inspiration for those on Gordon Murray's McLaren F1, without even mentioning it. Only around 15,000 were ever produced over a 6 year period and they are now incredibly rare.

Amazing. Very Nice classic cars🤩🤩😍😍

I'm a fairly new car enthusiast and it hurts seeing all those cars just sit there... So much potential there.

Brought a tear to my eye :( It's a shame seeing all those incredible classics going to waste. I'm quite surprised there's a bunch of 17 plate cars on there, surely they could be sold on the 2nd hand market

Loved my Sera. Back in 98 there were many times cosworth owners would get salty when I popped the doors open. Projection headlamps, gullwing doors front bucket seats, 10 speaker surround sound system from factory. Aircon. Even had the 'new' feature of turning on the fog light on the side that you were indicating of at slow speed. Shame the 1.5l engine wasn't the most powerful, although some owners swapped this out for a turbo

Just up from the boy raced escort that was made to look like an RS was a Alfa Romeo spider..and you didn't notice it!!..So much more desirable !!

What price the carbon footprint scrapping many of these vehicles that have loads of life left in them. Shame on HMG for the scheme & even more shame on some of the previus owners.

Oh, those Rover P6s and the 3500. That's our motoring heritage there, rotting away on an abandoned airport :( To think these classic British beauties were most likely traded in for Hyundai i10s and Kias that are themselves now probably one expensive repair away from the crusher. I have an '82 Volvo 240 - apparently almost a thousand of those were surrendered during the scrappage scheme, but I guess from this footage they've all long ago been crushed :( JFC we're a wasteful species.

Now this is an interesting video upload, well done sir.

This is heart breaking to see all these classic 60s, 70s and 80s motors going to pot.

The scrappage scheme was an awful idea that got rid of a lot of retro gems that people didn’t realise what they had, they released a list a few years back of what was scrapped and it was heartbreaking. I think those ones left are definitely being stripped for spares, I would bet others were too before being crushed.

It's a strange one really. It was good in a way, it definitely gave a boost to the UK car industry. Of course the downside is these classics but you have to ask if they had stayed on the road would they have survived this long anyway? Most of them perhaps would have just ended up at a scrapyard anyway. In a strange way, by placing them in the scrappage scheme they have oddly saved them as a time capsule of sorts. If only they could be restored. I bet they'd sell them easy enough if they held an auction. But the VIN's will be wiped now and down as officially scrapped so I guess that isn't going to happen. Diesel cars also became much more popular after the scrappage scheme and now they have decided diesel is the devil. So maybe we'd have been better off with all those petrols on the road instead.

Do one i have a feeling that is the case but now the cars dont belong to the gov as the scheme ended in 2010, the scrap company’s that own the cars have the only say when it comes to putting any of the cars on the road. Chances are they would rather crush them for metal(to make there money) rather then sell the cars for less then what they would make out of them.

kieran farrell the crushed cars are only worth a few hundred dollars 500 at the most for the heaviest. Most of those cars were worth far more sold for parts then crushed.

Didn’t know there were so many scrappage scheme gems at Bedford autodrome! I worked at a BMW main dealer during the scrappage period. I was discussed at some of the cars traded in. I always thought I bet some of the nicer stuff didn’t get scrapped. So people must have done well out of that deal back then.
