remember that the 2k is not from the dealership so work a deal out without mentioning the scrapage whatsit, then once you have a price tell them you want 2k off.

A grand of it is from the dealers though. They are less likely to discount for cash as they make more on the dredit agreements.

Depends on car. On popular models such as hyundai i10, panda, aygo etc you won't get much more off. Perhaps metallic paint or an option and free tax thrown in.

On larger cars such as BMW (who admit scrappage killed their sales) they'll be wanting to get a sale.
