ARRANGEMENTS FOR DEALING
WITH THE VEHICLE AT THE
END OF ITS LIFE
LANCIA has been committed for
many years to safeguarding the envi-
ronment through the constant im-
provement of its production processes
and manufacturing products that are
increasingly “eco-compatible”.
To give customers the best possible
service in terms of respecting environ-
mental laws and in response to Euro-
pean Directive 2000/53/EC govern-
ing vehicles at the end of their life,
LANCIA is offering its customers the
opportunity of handing over their ve-
hicle* at the end of its life without
incurring any additional costs.The European Directive sets out that
when the vehicle is handed over the
last keeper or owner should not incur
any expenses as a result of it having a
zero or negative market value.
In all European Union countries, until
1st January 2007, only vehicles regis-
tered after 1st July 2002 were col-
lected free of charge, while since 2007
collection has been free of charge irre-
spective of the year of registration as
long as the vehicle contains its basic
components (in particular, the engine
and bodywork) and has no additional
waste.
To hand your vehicle over at the end
of its life without extra cost, go to one
of our Dealerships or LANCIA-
authorized collection and scrapping
centres.These centres have been carefully
chosen to offer high quality service for
the collection, treatment and recy-
cling of unused vehicles with respect
to the environment.
You can find further information on
these collection and scrapping centres
either from a LANCIA or LANCIA
Commercial Vehicle Dealership or by
calling the freephone number 00800
526242 00 or by going on the
LANCIA website.
