You can't get this under pcp as you're using the scrappage scheme, but can get a loan from m&s bank at 2.8% APR

Good price, but worth showing price before scrappage in title as not everyone will have an eligible car to scrap.
Not sure I agree with the loan - if you can't afford it, don't buy it :smile:

If you can afford the loan payments then why not? I presume you bought your house with a suitcase full of cash that you had without needing to borrow it.

Not the same. House is an investment and a new car is the opposite

How many cars have you purchased that have increased in value beyond the interest paid to purchase it? Or at least broken even?

This post is misleading to say the least
What car do you need to trade in to get the 7k?
samscott to jameswalker457

Any diesel car registered before 31st Dec 2009, which you've owned for 6 months or more. The cars are actually scrapped unlike other manufacturers so environmentally it's a good move.

Scrapping a perfectly good 2009 car is not environmentally a good move. If anyone saw the amount of resources used to make a new car you would realise it actually makes more environmental sense to properly maintain and keep a car on the road for longer. Granted older diesels and pre-cat petrol models would be the exception. But a 2006-2009 diesel will likely have DPFS etc

Not sure why anyone would buy diesel now

This is a Euro-6 Diesel, why wouldn't you buy it? Still plenty of people who do high mileage and would save money over a petrol.

As long as you do the mileage that warrants a diesel, i.e. 15k miles or above.

I thought the government were going to tax diesel owners more. I might well be wrong. I own a diesel and thought when the time is up, I'd replace it with petrol.
If I am wrong, I apologise. No offence to anyone here meant.

What's wrong with Diesel? The government is bonkers going after Diesel. Don't diesel vehicles have lower emissions hence the lower VED? I guess they're missing that money. Are they going to start scrapping all HGV's too?
Madness.

Even more madness when u learn that new GDI engines (Gasoline Direct Injection - AKA small turbo petrols) emit more particulates than an old diesel.
The government are trying to keep that information very quiet though.

Enlighten us on the percentage of people who prioritise environmental concerns as their number one reason for buying a car please.

Please enlighten us, I'd genuinely like to know how this is so

I did read one report on it, but 118luke conveniently forgets and/or ignores that even though petrol engines are less efficient than diesel engines and emit more carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide and hydrocarbons, diesel engines produce more nitrogen oxides, sulphur dioxide, black smoke and particles - that is associated with poor urban air quality.

You mean own a diesel. One would certainly lease one.

I own a diesel :disappointed:

Why? I thought we were being penalised now for diesel cars by the powers that be.

Excellent price although worth saying a new A6 is due to be launched imminently so residuals will take a knock hence why the deeper discount. The deal is more for the scrappage allowance that not everyone will get.

The scrappage scheme usually replaces any other offers, so I doubt you would get £5k discount and then a further £7k off - it's more likely you would get £7k INSTEAD of £5k.

The cash price is already more than £5k less than RRP, so the cash price discount is already there. There might be a further deposit contribution to be had by taking up PCP with Audi finance. Haven't looked into it to know, but it is quite likely.

Surely the Audi scrappage scheme is only available for cars purchased directly through Audi?

You are buying it from Audi through their dealer network so the discounts apply.
