HOW MANY OPEL MODEL MISSING ARE LEFT?

There are 831 OPEL MODEL MISSING left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 1,832 OPEL MODEL MISSING that are currently SORNED.

The total number of OPEL MODEL MISSING was highest during 2004 Q4 (8,391). The number taxed topped out in 2004 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2024 Q3.

Since the total peaked, some 5,728 (68%) OPEL MODEL MISSING have been scrapped or exported.

During 2020 Q3 the number of OPEL MODEL MISSING 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 MODEL MISSING has fallen by 4,380. Licensed models have fallen by 5,186 and the SORNed total has increased by 806.

The 5 year trend shows a total decline of 976 OPEL MODEL MISSING models. Taxed models have declined by 1,001 and the SORNed total has increased by 25.

69% of the remaining 2,663 OPEL MODEL MISSING in the UK are currently off the road.
