dailymail = fail
don't need to quote - we know this blue-rinse-rag is responsible for killing kittens and the rise of maggie ' steal-your-milk-and-invade-your-country-then get-in-the-bath-and-don't-tell-dennis-that-MI6-has-leaked-the-brighton-bomb-plot-to-you-3-days-earlier' Thatcher
surely, not all journalists are this slapdash......oh hang on

The article actually looks quite good - certianly the same argument that crops up on here whenever the word 'scrappage' is mentioned. I expect someone else added/changed the pictures and the author is livid!

I managed to read that without vomiting blood, which is a first for a daily mail article. It's not bang on the money, but it's close.

Thats actually quite a good article ( but its just saying what a load of us were saying all along )  PS - I missed out on a mint Aussie Import '88 Toyota Camry with about 32K on the clock because of the scrappage scheme and I'm not at all pezzed off about it..  |

You fail, the article is not captioning the picture. |

The caption for the pic is the bit in bold, the 'natty two seater' bit is part of the main body of text, it doesn't relate to the picture. The bold text and large line show that. here endeth the lesson. Oh, and IBTL. |

1989 Peugeot 205. You know, the one that was parked in a ditch on the campsite at RRG'17... the glass is always full. but the ratio of air to water may vary. |

The ironic thing is that if the Tories had announced this scheme, the Daily Fail would have hailed it as genius......

So what is that silver car then? Looks quite Corsa C-ish to me.

Very confuddling as wheels do (as you say) look like Pug ones. However....they also look like Astra/Cav LX/LXi/Epression alloys, and the rear door trim/handle look Corsa-ish.
*Could be a five door 206 though looking at front wing/indicator. It also looks like more of a breaker than a scrappage victim as it appears someone's hacked the front end off to get the engine ouy.
