HOW MANY BETA TECHNO ARE LEFT?

There are 2 BETA TECHNO left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 13 BETA TECHNO that are currently SORNED.

There are currently more BETA TECHNO, in total, than ever before. The number taxed topped out in 2018 Q3 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2024 Q3.

During 2008 Q3 the number of BETA TECHNO 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.

The 5 year trend shows an overall increase of 4 BETA TECHNO models. Taxed models have declined by 2 and the SORNed total has increased by 6.

87% of the remaining 15 BETA TECHNO in the UK are currently off the road.
