i can't imagine why it couldn't be allowed back on the road
yes it should have been destroyed, but it wasn't that is an issue for it's previous owner and the recycling facility
i very much doubt the scrappage scheme came in with any specific laws which could prevent them appearing back on the road if they did escape the crusher

if it was priced well i'd be willing to take the risk on it
but not for £1200
At the time of this madness a mechanic I know in Exeter wished to buy a mint, 30,000 mile MK1 Focus that had been signed up for the scrappage scheme - he was informed that it was impossible to return it to the road once so designated and it was crushed. Couldn't really see how this was helping the environment...
