Dacia has extended its scrappage scheme until the end of March 2018 helping customers to trade-in and scrap their older vehicle for a brand new Dacia Duster or Sandero.

Dacia already offers the lowest priced new cars on the market and the scheme means the Duster and Sandero are even more affordable. A scrappage allowance of £1,000 is available on the Duster and £500 on the Sandero, including petrol and diesel versions of both models.

Drivers taking advantage of the scrappage scheme must trade in a car that is Euro 4 standard or older, registered by 31st December 2009. Vehicles part exchanged under this scheme will be responsibly scrapped.

The award-winning Dacia Sandero, still the UK’s most affordable new car five years after launch, starts at just £5,995. With the scrappage offer the Sandero in Ambiance trim, which comes with air conditioning, can now be purchased from as little as £6,895, down from £7,395.

The rugged and robust Dacia Duster line-up starts at £9,495 and is the most affordable SUV available in the UK making it a top choice for drivers looking for a practical, simple and family friendly SUV.

About Dacia

Dacia has a long history associated with Renault, the French brand first working with Dacia plants in Romania in the 1960s, before acquiring them fully in 1999. The brand concept is simple: to shake up preconceived ideas. Dacia produces spacious, robust, high-quality vehicles of original design that are affordable for everybody.

Dacia vehicles offer exceptional value for money. Reliable and resistant, they embody the best of Renault expertise. Relaunched by parent company Groupe Renault in 2004, the Dacia range has been expanding constantly and buyers have a wide array of vehicles to choose from, ranging from Dacia Duster, a sporty all-terrain vehicle, to light commercial vehicles or family vehicles such as the Dacia Sandero and Dacia Logan MCV. The concept continues to enjoy great success with over 4 million Dacias sold in Europe since the brand’s revival in 2004. 

Dacia launched in the UK in January 2013 and enjoyed the most successful start ever for a new car brand in the UK. Dacia was one of only four out of 36 manufacturers to receive five-star reliability ratings in the 2017 Which? Car Survey, outperforming many well established and premium brands. The Dacia Sandero has been awarded the title of “Best Small Car under £12,000” by What Car? for five consecutive years (2017, 2016, 2015, 2014, 2013). The New Dacia Logan MCV was named as Most Highly Rated Car at the 2017 Honest John Awards in 2017. More than 100,000 Dacia vehicles have been sold in the UK to date.
