HOW MANY OPEL KADETT J ARE LEFT?

There are 4 OPEL KADETT J left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 3 OPEL KADETT J that are currently SORNED.

The total number of OPEL KADETT J was highest during 1994 Q4 (173). The number taxed topped out in 1994 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2025 Q2.

Since the total peaked, some 166 (96%) OPEL KADETT J have been scrapped or exported.

During 2009 Q2 the number of OPEL KADETT J 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 OPEL KADETT J has gained 4. Licensed models have increased by 3 and the SORNed total has increased by 1.

The 5 year trend shows an overall increase of 3 OPEL KADETT J models. Taxed models have grown by 2 and the SORNed total has increased by 1.

57% of the surviving 7 OPEL KADETT J in the UK are still on the road.
