Blagging at Blogging 20th October, 2009

Regularity & Commitment Are Key Apparently…

I’ve neglected the Vansdirect.co.uk blog yet again… it’s been a month since my last post yet so much has happened in the van world.  Lord Mandelson has extended the scrappage scheme and, what’s more, for vans he’s reduced the age of the qualifying old banger from 10 to 8 years - good news for those manufacturers who are in the merde - perhaps not such great news for independent van retailer everywhere.

Has the government thought this scrappage scheme through I wonder?  It forces used car and van prices up - precluding those who can’t get finance from buying the standard of car or van they once could for a meagre fee.
