Scrappage scheme madness

The madness of the Government's ill-conceived car scrappage scheme; a intact and very clean T-registration Audi A6 is hosted into the air on a forklift truck, as it's taken just a few yards along an industrial road and into a scrapyard for crushing.

 

How can scrapping a car like this, and manufacturing a new car to replace it make any sense, let alone contribute to saving energy and the earth's valuable resources? Sheer and utter madness and needless waste. The only thing that's green about this picture is the colour of the unfortunate Audi.

 

As with all scrappage scheme cars, the records for T351EUD have been erased from the DVLA enquiry site.
