HOW MANY FORD ORION L 4SP ARE LEFT?

There are 3 FORD ORION L 4SP left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 2 FORD ORION L 4SP that are currently SORNED.

The total number of FORD ORION L 4SP was highest during 1994 Q4 (3,432). The number taxed topped out in 1994 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2020 Q4.

Since the total peaked, some 3,427 (100%) FORD ORION L 4SP have been scrapped or exported.

During 2015 Q4 the number of FORD ORION L 4SP 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 ORION L 4SP has fallen by 2. Licensed models have fallen by 2 and the SORNed total has fallen by 0.

The 5 year trend shows a total decline of 1 FORD ORION L 4SP models. Taxed models have grown by 2 and the SORNed total has fallen by 3.
