HOW MANY MERCEDES 300 TD ARE LEFT?

There are 54 MERCEDES 300 TD left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 135 MERCEDES 300 TD that are currently SORNED.

The total number of MERCEDES 300 TD was highest during 1999 Q4 (859). The number taxed topped out in 1999 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2021 Q1.

Since the total peaked, some 670 (78%) MERCEDES 300 TD have been scrapped or exported.

During 2017 Q4 the number of MERCEDES 300 TD 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 300 TD has fallen by 90. Licensed models have fallen by 126 and the SORNed total has increased by 36.

The 5 year trend shows a total decline of 29 MERCEDES 300 TD models. Taxed models have declined by 24 and the SORNed total has fallen by 5.

71% of the remaining 189 MERCEDES 300 TD in the UK are currently off the road.
