The government announced a scrappage scheme in April 2009 in a bid to increase the falling sales of new cars in the UK, people who took advantage of the initiative were offered up to 2000 discount on a new car when trading in a vehicle 10 years or older for scrap.

In the earliest of its beginnings, the automobile was mostly restricted to land. As many were just happy to even be in a car, little thought was given to what would come. As the car was a new and expensive luxury of the early 1900′s, those who had one were few and far between. Vehicle use was not particularly abundant and demand was limited to only the select few who could afford them. What a difference a hundred years makes. In the present, cars are not only affordable but almost a necessity for most. Not only a tool and convenience for many, the car has turned into a status symbol, a hobby, a business, or a passion. Many humans nowadays almost could not fathom living without a car. The automobile provides so much freedom it now is a strong representation of the American culture.
