Influenced by the success of the UK government's scrappage scheme, many automakers have taken up the concept and introduced their own version of offers to keep on enticing UK customers. SEAT is one of the latest manufacturers to follow suit, and has recently launched the Eco-nomics scheme, which offers up to £2,000 off the recommended retail price (RRP) of selected SEAT Ecomotive units.

"With the ending of the government's scrappage scheme the industry has seen numerous 'swappage'-style deals pop up", said Richard Harrison, head of operations at SEAT UK, in a press release.

"However, we wanted to take the original ethos of the scrappage scheme and add a SEAT twist by making our latest, class-leading, green technology models even more accessible for everyone, not just owners of ten-year-old cars", he added.

For instance, customers who want to drive home with the latest-generation Leon Ecomotive SE, equipped with a 1.6-litreTDI engine with common rail fuelling, Energy Recovery system and Start-Stop technology, can save nearly £4,300 over a 45,000 mile/ three-year ownership period. Hence, the Leon Ecomotive SE now only costs £16,045 RRP from the original price of £18,045 RRP.

Meanwhile, buyers of the Ibiza Ecomotive SC will be granted £1,250 in customer savings. Therefore, the Eco-nomics discount makes the car cost only £11,540 RRP compared to the £12,790 RRP original price.

"Already great value, with the added Eco-nomics discounts, our Ecomotive models now appeal even more to the head as well as the young at heart". Harrison concluded.

The Eco-nomics Scheme only applies to retail customers and includes orders made until 30 June 2010, with deliveries expected by 31 August 2010.
