HOW MANY CHUNLAN ARE LEFT?

There are 3 CHUNLAN left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 113 CHUNLAN that are currently SORNED.

The total number of CHUNLAN was highest during 2003 Q4 (674). The number taxed topped out in 2003 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2008 Q4.

Since the total peaked, some 558 (83%) CHUNLAN have been scrapped or exported.

During 2007 Q4 the number of CHUNLAN 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 CHUNLAN has fallen by 11. Licensed models have fallen by 21 and the SORNed total has increased by 10.

The 5 year trend shows a total decline of 7 CHUNLAN models. Taxed models have declined by 2 and the SORNed total has fallen by 5.

97% of the remaining 116 CHUNLAN in the UK are currently off the road.
