Devonshire Motors takes part in the scrappage scheme

Mitsubishi is pleased to participate in the Scrappage Scheme that was introduced in the Chancellor‘s budget in April 2009. The scheme enables you to scrap your current (10+ year old) vehicle and receive £2,000 towards a new car of your choice.

What‘s more, Mitsubishi is going one step further and is also offering a £2,000 allowance against vehicles over 5 years old.

This means there has never been a better time to change your car and buy a new Mitsubishi.
