    yeah i wasn't aware of that. The law does however state that the car itself doesn't have to be scrapped. The engine and drivetrain are not allowed to be salvaged, but any other part is available for resale. I can see dealers stocking up on body panels, etc. to save money in the bodyshop they operate. I did think it was odd that there is a bottom limit on how old a car is allowed to be. I would like to see what the reasoning behind that is. Also the disclaimer if you think about (especially the domestic and foreign part) is most likely there in an attempt to fight exporting of stolen vehicles.
