HOW MANY BMW 318 TI ARE LEFT?

There are 132 BMW 318 TI left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 549 BMW 318 TI that are currently SORNED.

The total number of BMW 318 TI was highest during 2000 Q4 (4,655). The number taxed topped out in 2000 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2024 Q1.

Since the total peaked, some 3,974 (85%) BMW 318 TI have been scrapped or exported.

During 2018 Q1 the number of BMW 318 TI 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 BMW 318 TI has fallen by 676. Licensed models have fallen by 860 and the SORNed total has increased by 184.

The 5 year trend shows a total decline of 127 BMW 318 TI models. Taxed models have declined by 130 and the SORNed total has increased by 3.

81% of the remaining 681 BMW 318 TI in the UK are currently off the road.
