HOW MANY RENAULT 5 TC ARE LEFT?

There are 8 RENAULT 5 TC left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 23 RENAULT 5 TC that are currently SORNED.

The total number of RENAULT 5 TC was highest during 1994 Q4 (7,722). The number taxed topped out in 1994 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2007 Q4.

Since the total peaked, some 7,691 (100%) RENAULT 5 TC have been scrapped or exported.

During 2014 Q4 the number of RENAULT 5 TC 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 RENAULT 5 TC has fallen by 5. Licensed models have fallen by 9 and the SORNed total has increased by 4.

The 5 year trend shows a total decline of 3 RENAULT 5 TC models. Taxed models have declined by 3 and the SORNed total has fallen by 0.

74% of the remaining 31 RENAULT 5 TC in the UK are currently off the road.
