HOW MANY VOLKSWAGEN POLO C ARE LEFT?

There are 231 VOLKSWAGEN POLO C left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 853 VOLKSWAGEN POLO C that are currently SORNED.

The total number of VOLKSWAGEN POLO C was highest during 1994 Q4 (111,989). The number taxed topped out in 1994 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2007 Q4.

Since the total peaked, some 110,905 (99%) VOLKSWAGEN POLO C have been scrapped or exported.

During 2014 Q3 the number of VOLKSWAGEN POLO C that were off the road (SORN) exceeded the number that were licensed for the first time. This could indicate the owners are reluctant to sell or scrap their car as they view them as a potential future classic.

In the last 10 years the total number of VOLKSWAGEN POLO C has fallen by 272. Licensed models have fallen by 363 and the SORNed total has increased by 91.

The 5 year trend shows a total decline of 111 VOLKSWAGEN POLO C models. Taxed models have declined by 101 and the SORNed total has fallen by 10.

79% of the remaining 1,084 VOLKSWAGEN POLO C in the UK are currently off the road.
