I would have added a zero to the end of what the government gave them for this car.

That’s an Obamanation!
Nope, just insured.
BS - nobody forced the dealer to turn the car into the program. Any dealer that got a car like this would just sell it.
I would have paid $6000 for the Bently. People just never call me about these things.
lol I bought a great Jeep Grand Cherokee with only 52,000 miles on it a 2002 with all the options, power seat, windows, etc. for $4,600 because of the cash for clunkers. Love it!
These Morons have no scruples about Destroying a 233 Year Old Nation, so a $300K Bently, ..... .
Who wants to be they weren’t really scrapped but ended up in some bureaucrat’s garage after greasing some dealer’s pockets?
Why wouldn’t the dealer forget the $4500 from Obama and just sell the thing. Parts alone would have been a nice little chunk of change.
Probably the act of some bitchy ex-wife.

Or whatever.
Maybe there was a body in the trunk? Clever way to get rid of incriminating evidence.
You had to go to a dealer to do the "Cash for Clunker" right?
And you get a max $4500.00 rebate from the gov if the dealer destroy the "Clunker", the car is in effect sold to the government for a max $4500.00
Well any dealer would know if a car was worth way more then $4500.00 and no way would apply for a $4500.00 government rebate on that car they could turn for more ...
The dealer would just give you a $4500.00 "rebate" out of their own pocket for title that "Clunker", and then resell
Gee I thought that too. But then, how clever is it? The car's registered to somebody (just how many people buy Bentleys?), it's got a zillion serial numbers on its parts, whoever brought a car in had to go through a slew of paperwork, etc. etc.
Unbelievable thanks for the info I included it.
Well according to Jalopnik and Detroit Press they linked to that is what happened disgusting I know but that is what they reported.
What appears to be an Jaguar XK8 in #1 (red car in the crusher) looks like a photoshop.
What a waste of money. Moreover, this crowd is so concerned about the environment they want me to use single ply paper in the bathroom but they have zero appreciation for the environmental cost of prematurely scrapping a drivable vehicle with a new one. I have come to the conclusion that even when the left seems to be telling the truth about what they want, the reason they had to resort to the truth was only to perpetuate the lie-du-jour.
