HOW MANY KEEN ARE LEFT?

There are 3 KEEN left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 76 KEEN that are currently SORNED.

The total number of KEEN was highest during 2007 Q4 (189). The number taxed topped out in 2007 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2024 Q1.

Since the total peaked, some 110 (58%) KEEN have been scrapped or exported.

During 2010 Q2 the number of KEEN 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 KEEN has fallen by 5. Licensed models have fallen by 12 and the SORNed total has increased by 7.

The 5 year trend shows a total decline of 4 KEEN models. Taxed models have declined by 3 and the SORNed total has fallen by 1.

96% of the remaining 79 KEEN in the UK are currently off the road.
