HOW MANY KIA MENTOR L ARE LEFT?

There are 1 KIA MENTOR L left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 3 KIA MENTOR L that are currently SORNED.

The total number of KIA MENTOR L was highest during 2004 Q4 (166). The number taxed topped out in 2004 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2011 Q4.

Since the total peaked, some 162 (98%) KIA MENTOR L have been scrapped or exported.

During 2019 Q4 the number of KIA MENTOR L 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 L has fallen by 24. Licensed models have fallen by 20 and the SORNed total has fallen by 4.

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

75% of the remaining 4 KIA MENTOR L in the UK are currently off the road.
