HOW MANY FORD ESCORT SAPPHIRE ARE LEFT?

There are 14 FORD ESCORT SAPPHIRE left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 96 FORD ESCORT SAPPHIRE that are currently SORNED.

The total number of FORD ESCORT SAPPHIRE was highest during 1997 Q4 (13,634). The number taxed topped out in 1997 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2007 Q4.

Since the total peaked, some 13,524 (99%) FORD ESCORT SAPPHIRE have been scrapped or exported.

During 2016 Q3 the number of FORD ESCORT SAPPHIRE 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 SAPPHIRE has fallen by 172. Licensed models have fallen by 161 and the SORNed total has fallen by 11.

The 5 year trend shows a total decline of 29 FORD ESCORT SAPPHIRE models. Taxed models have declined by 24 and the SORNed total has fallen by 5.

87% of the remaining 110 FORD ESCORT SAPPHIRE in the UK are currently off the road.
