HOW MANY HANWAY ARE LEFT?

There are 349 HANWAY left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 627 HANWAY that are currently SORNED.

The total number of HANWAY was highest during 2024 Q3 (986). The number taxed topped out in 2020 Q3 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2025 Q2.

Since the total peaked, some 10 (1%) HANWAY have been scrapped or exported.

During 2016 Q1 the number of HANWAY 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 HANWAY has gained 861. Licensed models have increased by 275 and the SORNed total has increased by 586.

The 5 year trend shows an overall increase of 140 HANWAY models. Taxed models have declined by 255 and the SORNed total has increased by 395.

64% of the remaining 976 HANWAY in the UK are currently off the road.
