HOW MANY CLASSIC CUSTOM ARE LEFT?

There are 6 CLASSIC CUSTOM left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 10 CLASSIC CUSTOM that are currently SORNED.

The total number of CLASSIC CUSTOM was highest during 2008 Q3 (50). The number taxed topped out in 2008 Q3 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2009 Q1.

Since the total peaked, some 34 (68%) CLASSIC CUSTOM have been scrapped or exported.

During 2013 Q4 the number of CLASSIC CUSTOM 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 CLASSIC CUSTOM has fallen by 0. Licensed models have fallen by 3 and the SORNed total has increased by 3.

The 5 year trend shows an overall increase of 1 CLASSIC CUSTOM models. Taxed models have grown by 2 and the SORNed total has fallen by 1.

63% of the remaining 16 CLASSIC CUSTOM in the UK are currently off the road.
