HOW MANY MERCEDES 190 ARE LEFT?

There are 2,332 MERCEDES 190 left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 5,195 MERCEDES 190 that are currently SORNED.

The total number of MERCEDES 190 was highest during 1994 Q4 (67,406). The number taxed topped out in 1994 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2023 Q4.

Since the total peaked, some 59,879 (89%) MERCEDES 190 have been scrapped or exported.

During 2017 Q4 the number of MERCEDES 190 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 MERCEDES 190 has fallen by 1,905. Licensed models have fallen by 3,249 and the SORNed total has increased by 1,344.

The 5 year trend shows a total decline of 704 MERCEDES 190 models. Taxed models have declined by 944 and the SORNed total has increased by 240.

69% of the remaining 7,527 MERCEDES 190 in the UK are currently off the road.
