HOW MANY KIA MENTOR ARE LEFT?

There are 9 KIA MENTOR left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 69 KIA MENTOR that are currently SORNED.

The total number of KIA MENTOR was highest during 2002 Q4 (7,239). The number taxed topped out in 2002 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2007 Q4.

Since the total peaked, some 7,161 (99%) KIA MENTOR have been scrapped or exported.

During 2019 Q2 the number of KIA MENTOR 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 KIA MENTOR has fallen by 373. Licensed models have fallen by 349 and the SORNed total has fallen by 24.

The 5 year trend shows a total decline of 52 KIA MENTOR models. Taxed models have declined by 50 and the SORNed total has fallen by 2.

88% of the remaining 78 KIA MENTOR in the UK are currently off the road.
