HOW MANY OPEL MANTA ARE LEFT?

There are 391 OPEL MANTA left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 1,043 OPEL MANTA that are currently SORNED.

The total number of OPEL MANTA was highest during 1994 Q4 (25,718). The number taxed topped out in 1994 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2023 Q4.

Since the total peaked, some 24,284 (94%) OPEL MANTA have been scrapped or exported.

During 2007 Q4 the number of OPEL MANTA 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 MANTA has gained 228. Licensed models have increased by 49 and the SORNed total has increased by 179.

The 5 year trend shows an overall increase of 108 OPEL MANTA models. Taxed models have grown by 115 and the SORNed total has fallen by 7.

73% of the remaining 1,434 OPEL MANTA in the UK are currently off the road.
