HOW MANY OPEL KADETT SR ARE LEFT?

There are 2 OPEL KADETT SR left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 7 OPEL KADETT SR that are currently SORNED.

The total number of OPEL KADETT SR in the UK was highest during 1994 Q4 (380). The number of taxed OPEL KADETT SR topped out in 1994 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2021 Q4.

Since the total peaked, some 371 (98%) OPEL KADETT SR have been scrapped or exported.

During 2007 Q4 the number of OPEL KADETT SR 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 SR has gained 3. Licensed models have increased by 1 and the SORNed total has increased by 2.

78% of the remaining 9 OPEL KADETT SR in the UK are currently off the road.
