HOW MANY FORD ESCORT XR3I ARE LEFT?

There are 109 FORD ESCORT XR3I left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 562 FORD ESCORT XR3I that are currently SORNED.

The total number of FORD ESCORT XR3I was highest during 1994 Q4 (7,902). The number taxed topped out in 1994 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2007 Q4.

Since the total peaked, some 7,231 (92%) FORD ESCORT XR3I have been scrapped or exported.

During 2011 Q1 the number of FORD ESCORT XR3I 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 XR3I has fallen by 26. Licensed models have fallen by 92 and the SORNed total has increased by 66.

The 5 year trend shows a total decline of 6 FORD ESCORT XR3I models. Taxed models have declined by 3 and the SORNed total has fallen by 3.

84% of the remaining 671 FORD ESCORT XR3I in the UK are currently off the road.
