HOW MANY ADLY ARE LEFT?

There are 26 ADLY left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 343 ADLY that are currently SORNED.

The total number of ADLY was highest during 2003 Q4 (1,135). The number taxed topped out in 2003 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2024 Q3.

Since the total peaked, some 766 (67%) ADLY have been scrapped or exported.

During 2011 Q4 the number of ADLY 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 ADLY has fallen by 48. Licensed models have fallen by 108 and the SORNed total has increased by 60.

The 5 year trend shows a total decline of 40 ADLY models. Taxed models have declined by 38 and the SORNed total has fallen by 2.

93% of the remaining 369 ADLY in the UK are currently off the road.
