Can I use damaged car for scrappage deal?
Hi, I have a Nissan Almere 2005 somebody ran into the back of me and the boot is damaged can i get the scrap age deal if I buy a new car
Our answer:
Hi Catherine,
You should be able to — as long as the car can drive onto the forecourt under its own power, it should qualify, but check with the dealer first and be up front about the damage. There’s no point in trying to hide it.
