HOW MANY CLASSIC REPLICAS ARE LEFT?

There are 7 CLASSIC REPLICAS left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 8 CLASSIC REPLICAS that are currently SORNED.

The total number of CLASSIC REPLICAS was highest during 2013 Q2 (18). The number taxed topped out in 2016 Q3 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2025 Q1.

Since the total peaked, some 3 (17%) CLASSIC REPLICAS have been scrapped or exported.

During 2011 Q4 the number of CLASSIC REPLICAS 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 REPLICAS has fallen by 1. Licensed models have fallen by 6 and the SORNed total has increased by 5.

The 5 year trend shows an overall increase of 3 CLASSIC REPLICAS models. Taxed models have declined by 0 and the SORNed total has increased by 3.

53% of the remaining 15 CLASSIC REPLICAS in the UK are currently off the road.
