      We have had numerous government scrappage schemes to get 'older' cars and cars less than certain quite recent euro standards for engines off the road, schemes that will have seen cars nicer than this scrapped, and I think that contributed to the cars left being worth no more than their scrap value.
      Government sells it to the population as 'for the environment' seemingly not realising that little of half of the car is actually recycled and how much energy is required to build new ones, but that's only one way they regularly show their stupidity.

    Best thing about Car Throttle and these blokes in general they also do videos for us average peeps... Who don't want or can't spend thousands on high end cars. Makes buying a preloved car more exciting and knowledgeable since we see the buying/inspection process. Cheers guys! Never change your formula!

      My car was listed for 3500€ and I got it for 3000. I think negociating is an important part of a sale. A car dealer will always try to get as much money out of you as possible. Also many private sellers don't know shit what they're talking about and will ask for much more than it's worth. The best deals you get are from old grandmas/grandpas cars, that sat in a garage with low milage.

    • @UnimprovedIN
