Customers Urged To ‘Buy Now’ Before Scrappage Scheme Ends
• Government scrappage scheme exit strategy confirmed
• Customers advised to ‘buy now’ to avoid disappointment
Waters AutoPlanet has welcomed the news that the Government will share out the remaining scrappage scheme budget based on retail sales in 2009. Consequently, we will get sufficient funding from the Government to satisfy customer needs for the balance of the scrappage scheme. However, with limited funds now available, we are urging customers to ‘buy now’ and take advantage of the scheme quickly to avoid disappointment.
“This really is the only fair way the Government could have divided up the remaining budget,” commented Brett Kavanagh, Marketing Manager, Waters AutoPlanet. “It is good news for the public as based on our forecast for 2010, we will get sufficient funding from the Government to satisfy our customers’ needs for the balance of the scrappage scheme.
“However, it is important that any customer considering purchasing a new car through scrappage takes advantage of the scheme sooner rather than later, as the final phase of the scheme is a smaller allocation of funds and customers may be disappointed if they wait too long to make a purchase,” added Kavanagh.
“Most manufacturers have not yet announced their post-scrappage plans, but it is reasonable to assume that once the Government money runs out any offers from the majority of manufacturers will not be at the same level. We are advising customers to make the most of the offers on the table now to avoid disappointment.
“Our manufacturer partners have ensured that vehicles are in stock for customers wanting to take advantage of the scrappage scheme and we can call off all model lines for early delivery. While we have seen 75 percent of our scrappage sales going to smaller cars, we have also seen family cars selling well and even sportscars have been purchased through the scheme,” concluded Kavanagh.
Waters AutoPlanet has wholeheartedly embraced the Scrappage Scheme since April and currently supplements the Government’s £1,000 with additional payments of between £1,000 and £5,000, which means even more added value for owners changing their ‘old' model for a new car.
