Hi Angellica, the point thats being made here is that the £24000 value threshold only seems to apply ‘selectively’. To explain, for a manufacturer to be able to offer a certain model on the scheme, there has to be a specification of that particular model available at less than £24000, not just a vehicle in the manufacturer’s range at below that figure. When I was discussing it with Subaru, I pointed out that Mazda’s entry level CX5, Volkswagon’s entry level Tiguan, and Honda’s entry level CRV to name but three competitor’s SUV rivals to the Subaru Forester, are all priced above the £24000 threshold. In spite of this all three of those manufacturers are able to get a range of specifications of each of those vehicles on the scheme, yet Subaru can’t join at all. So the criteria for a manufacturer offering a particular vehicle on the scheme doesn’t appear at least to be being applied consistently across all manufacturers If anyone can shed any light on that, then by all means do so.
ahhh I see. Thank you for explaining this so well @Macca. Sometimes I can be a bit slow off the mark, don’t mind me lol.
