Skoda welcomes scrapping scheme
Car manufacturer Skoda has claimed the government's new car-scrapping scheme is good news for families with older vehicles.
It says the idea behind replacing old, inefficient, polluting cars with newer, safer models fits perfectly with its range of family-friendly automobiles.
The company suggests its supermini Fabia or the top-of-the-range Superb both fit the needs of a wide range of family transportation requirements - from the school run to shopping.
Robert Hazelwood, Skoda UK's brand director, said any idea that encourages people to buy new cars is positive news.
He added it is a "great deal" for families because it helps them "get into modern cars that are safer, greener and more economical to run".
"Skoda has the ideal range of cars to meet customers' needs and we've already had a lot of interest," he concluded.
The car-scrapping scheme was unveiled in this month's Budget.
