HOW MANY LIFAN LF 50 ARE LEFT?

There are 10 LIFAN LF 50 left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 307 LIFAN LF 50 that are currently SORNED.

The total number of LIFAN LF 50 was highest during 2014 Q4 (522). The number taxed topped out in 2013 Q3 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2023 Q1.

Since the total peaked, some 205 (39%) LIFAN LF 50 have been scrapped or exported.

During 2015 Q4 the number of LIFAN LF 50 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 LIFAN LF 50 has fallen by 185. Licensed models have fallen by 276 and the SORNed total has increased by 91.

The 5 year trend shows a total decline of 62 LIFAN LF 50 models. Taxed models have declined by 50 and the SORNed total has fallen by 12.

97% of the remaining 317 LIFAN LF 50 in the UK are currently off the road.
