HOW MANY PEUGEOT 205 XE ARE LEFT?

There are 34 PEUGEOT 205 XE left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 200 PEUGEOT 205 XE that are currently SORNED.

The total number of PEUGEOT 205 XE was highest during 1994 Q4 (22,469). The number taxed topped out in 1994 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2007 Q4.

Since the total peaked, some 22,235 (99%) PEUGEOT 205 XE have been scrapped or exported.

During 2015 Q1 the number of PEUGEOT 205 XE 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 PEUGEOT 205 XE has fallen by 88. Licensed models have fallen by 111 and the SORNed total has increased by 23.

The 5 year trend shows a total decline of 29 PEUGEOT 205 XE models. Taxed models have declined by 30 and the SORNed total has increased by 1.

85% of the remaining 234 PEUGEOT 205 XE in the UK are currently off the road.
