HOW MANY FORD SAPPHIRE 2000E ARE LEFT?

There are 7 FORD SAPPHIRE 2000E left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 99 FORD SAPPHIRE 2000E that are currently SORNED.

The total number of FORD SAPPHIRE 2000E was highest during 1994 Q4 (1,740). The number taxed topped out in 1994 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2007 Q4.

Since the total peaked, some 1,634 (94%) FORD SAPPHIRE 2000E have been scrapped or exported.

During 2012 Q4 the number of FORD SAPPHIRE 2000E 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 SAPPHIRE 2000E has fallen by 15. Licensed models have fallen by 36 and the SORNed total has increased by 21.

The 5 year trend shows a total decline of 8 FORD SAPPHIRE 2000E models. Taxed models have declined by 9 and the SORNed total has increased by 1.

93% of the remaining 106 FORD SAPPHIRE 2000E in the UK are currently off the road.
