HOW MANY VOLKSWAGEN POLO GL ARE LEFT?

There are 35 VOLKSWAGEN POLO GL left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 109 VOLKSWAGEN POLO GL that are currently SORNED.

The total number of VOLKSWAGEN POLO GL was highest during 1995 Q4 (9,354). The number taxed topped out in 1995 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2007 Q4.

Since the total peaked, some 9,210 (98%) VOLKSWAGEN POLO GL have been scrapped or exported.

During 2017 Q4 the number of VOLKSWAGEN POLO GL 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 GL has fallen by 176. Licensed models have fallen by 187 and the SORNed total has increased by 11.

The 5 year trend shows a total decline of 36 VOLKSWAGEN POLO GL models. Taxed models have declined by 34 and the SORNed total has fallen by 2.

76% of the remaining 144 VOLKSWAGEN POLO GL in the UK are currently off the road.
