I've signed - although the term "classic car" should be defined more accurately.

I think you'll find this is some kind of joke. The vehicles are long gone.

[The Express Valeter]

Best way to spread this is Copy And Paste wherever possible!!

No really, it's a scam, a joke, an Internet troll etc etc... There are no cars left in any secret storage areas etc.. The cars all needed a certificate of destruction for the dealers to get there £1000 from the government and the other £1000 from the manufacturer. The cars went to scrap yards, some parts did get reused but most of the vehicles were actually scrap so went straight to the crusher. There was a slight backlog towards late 09 but this was soon caught up by early 2010. There really is nothing left to be saved.

I think the cars are still on the airfield, but I can't be sure

I think the cars are still there, well it looks that way according to this thread - http://www.theminiforum.co.uk/forums...re-lost/page-3

The storage area in those photos is used by various vehicle importers and exporters, they aren't the scrap page scheme cars. Cars are in and out of there 24/7.

Just up the road from me at Thurleigh Airfield.

I reposted this link on RM web which is a huge model railway forum and various people have posted links to pictures of cars still being extant from this scheme
