Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled
After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.
Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

Cash for clunkers schemes usually are only good for lining the pockets of korean car manufacturers. More pissing money up against a wall in my opinion.

Yep. Although the question in my mind is how many people who are driving olds clunkers can afford new cars?...Originally posted by JoeVR
Having said that, nothing to stop you picking up a sub $500 POS just to trade it in
If it has an engine or heartbeat it's going to cost you.Comment

The whole scheme is rubish, save the environment my ass.
Driving an old car is alot more environmentally friendly then driving a new car. Sure some old cars will use more petrol and have more emissions but think about what it takes to build a new car. You can drive a VN 5L for 10years and in that time it still wont be as harmfull to the environment as building a prius is.MK1 GLS 3door

This is from memory of about 20 years ago when working in Malaysia.
Singapore required a bond on all new car purchases.
This bond is returned when car destroyed (Or dismantled?) before set time period.
I think not allowed to be resold over border? eg, required certificate to say destroyed.
This was one way to keep Singapore looking clean and tidy.MY13 Passat 130TDI Sedan. Autumn Brown Metalic, Desert Beige seats. Sat nav, Rev camera, Dynaudio, 12way adj seats. No ACC Previous Golf 118 TSI with ACC given to my sonComment

The green guidelines should be applied in this order
1. Reduce - the number of vehicles in use
2. Re -use - what is already available
3. Re-cycle - as the last resortComment
