They get scrapped because people don't do anything about the VCU.

Whether you choose to refurbish yourself or pay for one from someone else makes no difference.

I don't think having the money to change the VCU has anything to do with it. I for one am not afraid to spend money on a car. I spent over £1,600 on parts alone for my Discovery 3 in the last 12 months. It's all part of ownership of such a vehicle.
DIY VCU rebuilding is not only about value for money, but knowing the job has also been done correctly. If you are happy to spend £250 + on a refurbished VCU that has been filled with £5 worth God knows what, go right ahead. Personally I'd rather spend £8 on 120ml on the correct fluid and know that it's been done correctly. ;)

I've actually got 2 VCUs to referbish with new fluid. The mother in laws V6 could probably do with a fluid change too. It's better to sort it out before it causes damage to the IRD.
