Im sure you have all heard of the “CARS” program in the states… get a rebate when you bring in your car blah blah blah… I figured they would just crush the cars and be done with it but they have to go to the extreme and blow the motors in them… i didn’t know this… > **[The (supposed) destruction of an engine under "Cash for Clunkers" - Roadshow](https://www.cnet.com/roadshow/news/the-supposed-destruction-of-an-engine-under-cash-for-clunkers/)** > > CARS, commonly known as the "Cash for Clunkers" program sponsored by the U.S. government, is a hot topic this summer. This video supposedly demonstrates the methods that a "clunker" engine is disabled under the CARS program. Poor Volvo sounds like its crying… [y]waj2KrKYTZo[/y] Lots of vids posted in the related vid bar So sad. Discuss. ---

I’m soooooooooo buying that Volvo. What year and motor is it. If the car can keep running for 4min. on high rpm, filled with some crap liquid, sand and silica! - that’s the best advertising for me. and yeah, it’s somehow hard to watch. ---

They blow the motors so that they cant be purchased from the junkyard and put back into a car defeating the purpose of the program. Individual parts may be taken off motors but the whole thing is not reusable… ---
