I very much doubt there are classics, but a few old bangers described as historic, seeing as they had to be running when exchanged for the new car I suspect any genuine classic and historic cars were lifted out of the scheme by the dealers. my PC is slightly to the right of Genghis
2012 HSE SD4 In Orkney Grey now gone, best car ever.

You will find many good & often mint cars would be in this stupid scheme. I have heard & seen of many fine examples going for scrap this way because the owners were brainwashed into thinking they were getting a good deal & saving the planet = a Big LOL. Rolling with laughter

The guy who thought this up as it says on the E-Petition says to auction them which = Money. In many cases I suspect far more than £2000 will be achieved which is what the owners would I believe had been paid. (Past) Freelander 2 HSE 2010 MY In Rimini Red.

according to the google search the 2009 scrapage scheme left these "classics" destined for the crusher

Quote:
However, among the ranks of mainstream models that were scrapped were over 2,000 classic cars that today could each be worth substantially more than the £2,000 allowance their owners received for them. They included over 400 original Minis, 45 Ford Escort Mexicos and 10 Reliant Scimitar GTEs.

Even sturdy vehicles such as classic-style Land Rovers were surrendered, with over 450 examples including Defenders submitting to the scrapyards’ steel jaws.

David Hollis, leader of the British Mini Club, said it was “sad” so many classic cars had been scrapped.

“It is such a shame,” he said. “These are classic cars and values have only gone up since.”
