HOW MANY BMW M3 EVOLUTION ARE LEFT?

There are 237 BMW M3 EVOLUTION left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 499 BMW M3 EVOLUTION that are currently SORNED.

The total number of BMW M3 EVOLUTION was highest during 1999 Q4 (1,715). The number taxed topped out in 1999 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2023 Q4.

Since the total peaked, some 979 (57%) BMW M3 EVOLUTION have been scrapped or exported.

During 2016 Q4 the number of BMW M3 EVOLUTION 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 M3 EVOLUTION has fallen by 91. Licensed models have fallen by 293 and the SORNed total has increased by 202.

The 5 year trend shows a total decline of 39 BMW M3 EVOLUTION models. Taxed models have declined by 69 and the SORNed total has increased by 30.

68% of the remaining 736 BMW M3 EVOLUTION in the UK are currently off the road.
