HOW MANY DAELIM TRANS ARE LEFT?

There are 2 DAELIM TRANS left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 36 DAELIM TRANS that are currently SORNED.

The total number of DAELIM TRANS was highest during 2007 Q4 (122). The number taxed topped out in 2007 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2023 Q2.

Since the total peaked, some 84 (69%) DAELIM TRANS have been scrapped or exported.

During 2015 Q2 the number of DAELIM TRANS 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 DAELIM TRANS has fallen by 19. Licensed models have fallen by 22 and the SORNed total has increased by 3.

The 5 year trend shows a total decline of 3 DAELIM TRANS models. Taxed models have declined by 2 and the SORNed total has fallen by 1.

95% of the remaining 38 DAELIM TRANS in the UK are currently off the road.
