VW says no buyback for stripped cars

A Cincinnati Golf owner may have ruined things for everyone attempting to get their dismantled VW through the buyback process.

Volkswagen is attempting to close down a rather large loophole in the requirements of the diesel buyback scheme.

Under the terms of the Consent Decree signed with the Environmental Protection Agency earlier this year, VW agreed to buy back emissions cheating diesel cars that are "operable."

It makes perfect sense to me. Some people are just asses who want to take advantage of a situation.

Take advantage... Seriously... When I took my car in yesterday the guy told me that mileage was the only thing that affected the buyback. I lost 3k because I actually drove my 2010 A3 everywhere. I only took out my other cars on the weekend if that. They are the ones getting over. If my car is beat up, I get the same money but since I had 114k miles on my 2010, it cost me cash. I only removed everything that wasn't bolted down which isn't much. VW got over... And I was told that they are putting blue tec tanks on the cars and going to resale them. I didn't think that was happening but he said it was. My car was in perfect condition except the NAV stopping reading DVD's but still played CD's.

I hate VW--IKR surprise--but I stand with VW on this. I'd love for these owners to lose their cars and the payout.
