Ever since, there have been imitators called Scout canoes, but the good old Coleman Scanoe? Maybe you can find one used, but new? Not anymore, my friend. The last Coleman branded Scanoe was made in 2001. I do fully agree with you that the rule does not make any sense, but it is what it is.If you’ve never heard the term “Scanoe”, you’re probably not alone. If that use case is not feasible, the best course of action, in my opinion, would be to sell it to a reputed scrap agent and get a certificate saying that the car has been scrapped to protect yourself from any future liability. However, if you can manage to take it out of the metropolitan region, it can still be used by you outside the boundaries of the NCR until the expiry of the RC. Here’s what BHPian colcol had to say on the matter:Īs many have pointed out, the car is only good for scrap inside the NCR. That too in this time of inflation when car prices have gone to the next level. It feels so wrong to be forced to buy a new car when your old car works perfectly fine. I have an October 2011 Vento and I have given it my absolute best in keeping it well. Here’s what BHPian Rachit.K.Dogra had to say on the matter: There are some odd ways you can conserve the chassis by retrofitting an EV kit (makes it legal I think) but I have no idea how feasible, possible and sensible that would be in a Car like Audi. It feels sorry for the car, owner as well as environment but there’s not much that can be done now.
It’s easy to find out about a vehicle and its validity as well as using its registration number.
Even if someone deliberately hits your car or jumps in front of it (people who would know that vehicle is not road legal anymore might deliberately do it, it’s easy money), you could be facing difficult situations and people CAN twist your arm for money. Also, the RC can’t be transferred as it is not valid anymore so the car will always be under your name as it’s your liability regardless of who drives it. In addition, you will entirely have to bear the damages. In such a case, god forbid an accident happens then you will be held accountable as the owner of the car. I would not recommend selling it in local village etc because the car likely won’t get insurance. Seems an environment-friendly idea as well, at least better than scrapping. German cars have expensive spare parts so perhaps they can buy spares for cheap as long as it’s a popular model. The best thing you can do is consult a car dealer and sell it for its parts. Here’s what BHPian rishi.roger had to say on the matter: I had my Scorpio scrapped for the same reasons. The best case scenario is that you keep using the car locally or for outstation trips without entering Delhi or Gurgaon, till the time your RC runs out. You can’t really sell it now, you won’t get the NOC. Here’s what BHPian Shreyans_Jain had to say on the matter: What can I do that this beautiful car doesn’t go waste? Please advise. These lawmakers use cars etc., from our tax money so they don’t care about anything. This is unethical pressure on people to waste their hard-earned money. The car’s RC is valid and is active but the RTO doesn’t issue NOC so the car can be transferred to a state where this law doesn’t exist. The vehicles that are actually polluting are still plying and other polluting sources are not banned but cars are an easy target. I don’t understand the policy of the government which declares my car as non-road worthy. The car is scratchless and in beautiful condition. I have a 2010 Audi A6 2.7 TDi done only 40,800 km with 3 new tyres. This is better than scrapping it.īHPian varunsahgal recently shared this with other enthusiasts.
