HOW MANY BMW 545I SE ARE LEFT?

There are 6 BMW 545I SE left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 12 BMW 545I SE that are currently SORNED.

The total number of BMW 545I SE was highest during 2006 Q4 (37). The number taxed topped out in 2006 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2025 Q2.

Since the total peaked, some 19 (51%) BMW 545I SE have been scrapped or exported.

During 2022 Q3 the number of BMW 545I SE 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 545I SE has fallen by 10. Licensed models have fallen by 20 and the SORNed total has increased by 10.

The 5 year trend shows a total decline of 6 BMW 545I SE models. Taxed models have declined by 9 and the SORNed total has increased by 3.

67% of the remaining 18 BMW 545I SE in the UK are currently off the road.
