Hyundai is offering £5,035 off its 2.0-litre Coupe which puts the price down to £12,995.

The offer stands for non-scrappage customers, but if customers want to trade in their 10 year old car, Hyundai will cut another £1,000 off the price using the Government’s discount scheme.

The top of the range TSIII version of the Coupe is also available with a discount of £5,220, putting the list price down to £14,295.

A spokesman for Hyundai said: "Coupe has always been popular in the UK and it's the biggest market for Europe.

"We bought the last 1,500 cars off the production line in Korea knowing that we could find homes for them, especially if they were at 'beneficial' rates. The factory did us a deal and we are happy to pass that on to the customers."
