HOW MANY LEYLAND CARS ARE LEFT?

There are 1,834 LEYLAND CARS left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 2,230 LEYLAND CARS that are currently SORNED.

The total number of LEYLAND CARS was highest during 1994 Q4 (26,194). The number taxed topped out in 1994 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2017 Q4.

Since the total peaked, some 22,130 (84%) LEYLAND CARS have been scrapped or exported.

During 2007 Q4 the number of LEYLAND CARS 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 LEYLAND CARS has gained 858. Licensed models have increased by 678 and the SORNed total has increased by 180.

The 5 year trend shows an overall increase of 380 LEYLAND CARS models. Taxed models have grown by 331 and the SORNed total has increased by 49.

55% of the remaining 4,064 LEYLAND CARS in the UK are currently off the road.
