HOW MANY AUSTIN METRO GS ARE LEFT?

There are 3 AUSTIN METRO GS left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 27 AUSTIN METRO GS that are currently SORNED.

The total number of AUSTIN METRO GS was highest during 1994 Q4 (4,295). The number taxed topped out in 1994 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2007 Q4.

Since the total peaked, some 4,265 (99%) AUSTIN METRO GS have been scrapped or exported.

During 2011 Q4 the number of AUSTIN METRO GS 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 AUSTIN METRO GS has fallen by 2. Licensed models have fallen by 10 and the SORNed total has increased by 8.

The 5 year trend shows a total decline of 3 AUSTIN METRO GS models. Taxed models have declined by 5 and the SORNed total has increased by 2.

90% of the remaining 30 AUSTIN METRO GS in the UK are currently off the road.
