I'm not sure about this, yes it encourages people to buy new cars, ultimately helping the motor industry. Of which there is none in the UK! But someone driving around in a clapped out banger may be doing so because they cannot afford a new car. By enticing them with 2,000 off it may encourage them to borrow money to buy a car worth say £12k (1.6 Astra/Focus) and take out loans they cannot afford. Not something thats to clever in this financial climate. I guess we will just have to see how much of a success it is in the UK, just my 2ps worth, but then again what does a simple 18 year old know kid know!
