HOW MANY PROTON GEN 2 GLS ARE LEFT?

There are 48 PROTON GEN 2 GLS left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 91 PROTON GEN 2 GLS that are currently SORNED.

The total number of PROTON GEN 2 GLS was highest during 2006 Q4 (1,481). The number taxed topped out in 2006 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2020 Q3.

Since the total peaked, some 1,342 (91%) PROTON GEN 2 GLS have been scrapped or exported.

During 2023 Q2 the number of PROTON GEN 2 GLS 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 PROTON GEN 2 GLS has fallen by 1,017. Licensed models have fallen by 1,043 and the SORNed total has increased by 26.

The 5 year trend shows a total decline of 259 PROTON GEN 2 GLS models. Taxed models have declined by 231 and the SORNed total has fallen by 28.

65% of the remaining 139 PROTON GEN 2 GLS in the UK are currently off the road.
