HOW MANY MCW MODEL MISSING ARE LEFT?

There are 38 MCW MODEL MISSING left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 290 MCW MODEL MISSING that are currently SORNED.

The total number of MCW MODEL MISSING was highest during 1994 Q4 (4,608). The number taxed topped out in 1994 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2020 Q2.

Since the total peaked, some 4,280 (93%) MCW MODEL MISSING have been scrapped or exported.

During 2013 Q1 the number of MCW MODEL MISSING 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 MCW MODEL MISSING has fallen by 27. Licensed models have fallen by 74 and the SORNed total has increased by 47.

The 5 year trend shows a total decline of 22 MCW MODEL MISSING models. Taxed models have grown by 15 and the SORNed total has fallen by 37.

88% of the remaining 328 MCW MODEL MISSING in the UK are currently off the road.
