HOW MANY FORD ESCORT LX D ARE LEFT?

There are 3 FORD ESCORT LX D left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 15 FORD ESCORT LX D that are currently SORNED.

The total number of FORD ESCORT LX D was highest during 1997 Q4 (2,176). The number taxed topped out in 1997 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2007 Q4.

Since the total peaked, some 2,158 (99%) FORD ESCORT LX D have been scrapped or exported.

During 2015 Q2 the number of FORD ESCORT LX D 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 FORD ESCORT LX D has fallen by 13. Licensed models have fallen by 12 and the SORNed total has fallen by 1.

The 5 year trend shows a total decline of 1 FORD ESCORT LX D models. Taxed models have grown by 1 and the SORNed total has fallen by 2.

83% of the remaining 18 FORD ESCORT LX D in the UK are currently off the road.
