HOW MANY BMW 320D ES ARE LEFT?

There are 969 BMW 320D ES left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 1,317 BMW 320D ES that are currently SORNED.

The total number of BMW 320D ES was highest during 2009 Q2 (10,151). The number taxed topped out in 2009 Q2 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2024 Q2.

Since the total peaked, some 7,865 (77%) BMW 320D ES have been scrapped or exported.

During 2024 Q2 the number of BMW 320D ES 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 320D ES has fallen by 6,983. Licensed models have fallen by 7,961 and the SORNed total has increased by 978.

The 5 year trend shows a total decline of 2,846 BMW 320D ES models. Taxed models have declined by 2,936 and the SORNed total has increased by 90.

58% of the remaining 2,286 BMW 320D ES in the UK are currently off the road.
