Title: Another one bites the dust
Post by: BigIainy on 05 January 2010, 21:09
Hi folks,my local breaker's yard got a G reg 98000 mile MK2 GTI in under the scrappage scheme yesterday,I posted about it
on the Scottish VAG forum as a heads up for folk needing parts,the trim itself was mint,here's a pic of the car on Monday

I went down to the yard at 9.30 this morning to ask about various parts,only to be told by the owner that he needed the space and the car
was just about to be crushed,what a bloody waste,to say I was raging would be an understatement. :angry: :angry:

Is it 2k you get for it under the scrappage scheme?

Don't think he scrapped it mate, he was after letting people know it was there so people could get bits if they needed to
