HOW MANY BAROSSA ARE LEFT?

There are 28 BAROSSA left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 435 BAROSSA that are currently SORNED.

The total number of BAROSSA was highest during 2010 Q1 (865). The number taxed topped out in 2009 Q3 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2024 Q1.

Since the total peaked, some 402 (46%) BAROSSA have been scrapped or exported.

During 2013 Q4 the number of BAROSSA 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 BAROSSA has fallen by 125. Licensed models have fallen by 164 and the SORNed total has increased by 39.

The 5 year trend shows a total decline of 59 BAROSSA models. Taxed models have declined by 40 and the SORNed total has fallen by 19.

94% of the remaining 463 BAROSSA in the UK are currently off the road.
