Kirk Nissan Deal Extended

Northern Ireland drivers hoping to avail of the car scrappage scheme have been thrown a lifeline, and Nissan's British Built Trade-in Scheme lives on too.

Buyers in Omagh who thought they had missed out on the £2,000 Scrappage discount have now been given another chance to take advantage of the scheme following news the Government has extended the incentive to include an additional 100,000 cars.

However, the Government Scrappage Scheme is still of no use to owners of cars less than 10 years old.

Pat Kirk Nissan's British Built Trade-in Scheme has guaranteed a £2,000 minimum trade-in against any new British built Nissan for trade in vehicles aged 8-10 years old.

New Nissans eligible for the deal include any car built at Nissan's Sunderland Plant, giving buyers the choice of any new Micra, NOTE, QASHQAI or QASHQAI+2.

Combined with the Government's extended Scrappage Scheme, Nissan’s British Built Trade-in Scheme aims to sustain the uplift in sales enjoyed in recent months.

Peter McDermott, Dealer Principal at Pat Kirk Nissan on Brookmount Road, said: "We are delighted that the scheme has been extended and look forward to welcoming customers to the dealership to take advantage of these fantastic offers.

"There's no doubt the Scrappage Scheme along with our own British Built Trade-in Scheme has given, and will continue to give, the UK car industry a boost. We’re delighted that both incentives can carry on."
