HOW MANY DATSUN 160 ARE LEFT?

There are 16 DATSUN 160 left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 31 DATSUN 160 that are currently SORNED.

The total number of DATSUN 160 was highest during 1994 Q4 (1,744). The number taxed topped out in 1994 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2017 Q4.

Since the total peaked, some 1,697 (97%) DATSUN 160 have been scrapped or exported.

During 2007 Q4 the number of DATSUN 160 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 DATSUN 160 has gained 6. Licensed models have increased by 5 and the SORNed total has increased by 1.

The 5 year trend shows an overall increase of 3 DATSUN 160 models. Taxed models have grown by 3 and the SORNed total has fallen by 0.

66% of the remaining 47 DATSUN 160 in the UK are currently off the road.
