WhackyWill Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 While I was boared on Holiday on the Lovely French Riviera, I found the following info. The list of the cars which fell victim to the 09 scrappage scheme... most of them you'd think good riddance such as the 12,000+ Clio's or and similar number of Saxo's! Although sadly not enough Daewoo's were scrapped with only 3671 getting crushed imho however some folk need shooting! for scrapping the following... 975 Mini's inc 50 + Coopers!!! WTF? 25 Alfa Spiders and a 155 Silverstone. Some one scrapped an Austin Healey Sprite! are they you mad..!! An Alpina B7.. Why..!! A Camaro and a Firebird 72 2CV's 22 Fiat Barchetta's, 10 X1/9's 24, Yes twenty four Ford Capri's, 3 Escort RS Turbo's Unbelievably no less than 120 MGB's a Morris Traveller and 49 Moggy Minors, 21 Triumph Spitfires, 5 Heralds, 18 TR7's and a TR8 !!! 99 Porsches (no 911's thankfully) but 2 928's and 14 944's the rest being 924's 438 Toyota Celicas and 31 Supra's 286 Subaru Impreza's 2 Honda Integra Type R's 10 Mazda RX7's 2 Nissan Skyline GTR's..!!! a brace of M3 bimmers a Lancia Delta integrale WHY..!! rather oddly I found 7 Nissan Qashqai's had been scrapped, Nissan introduced the Qashqai in 2007 so not sure what thats all about lol in total 39,2227 cars were scrapped in the purge all for 2 grand off a new motor?

Fodder Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 The problem with these reports (which I don't see a source) they don't take into account the condition of the vehicle or spec. As far as I know the only requirements were it was registered so could've been SORN'ed for eons and been badly attacked by the metal mice.

DoogyRev Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 72 2CV's Now I would not say this is a travesty . . . you could scrap a 2CV by sneezing from 20 paces 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twobears Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 On the plus side you could then pick up one of the doors, crumple it up and use it to blow your nose Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
