22.2.10: Secret scrappage news we can’t tell you… yet!
CAR Dealer Magazine has been sworn to secrecy. And, when we’re given embargoes, we respect ‘em.
Man, it’s frustrating sometimes, though!
I’ve just got back from Central London, where I’ve been listening to a full-on briefing all about the exit phase of the scrappage scheme. Held by BIS top names, it was literally an exclusive: we were the only media there! Information comes no hotter…
Indeed, it is so fresh, car makers themselves don’t even know yet. When I left, the letters were just going out to brands, telling them, well, the stuff I can’t yet tell you.
The embargo is to be lifted on Tuesday midnight. I’ll be staying up to ensure it goes up live dead on midnight. Any keen night owls out there, be sure to check out the site!
For now, sorry I can’t tell you more. But BIS invited Car Dealer Magazine alone for the one-on-one briefing, because we’ve been on board with the scheme from the off. Which has meant we’ve been able to bring you all the latest information, the moment it breaks.
We don’t want to break that trust, and risk the quality of information we bring you! So, for now, please bear with us..!
Richard.
