HOW MANY SKODA OCTAVIA CLASSIC SDI ARE LEFT?

There are 147 SKODA OCTAVIA CLASSIC SDI left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 497 SKODA OCTAVIA CLASSIC SDI that are currently SORNED.

The total number of SKODA OCTAVIA CLASSIC SDI was highest during 2004 Q4 (7,963). The number taxed topped out in 2004 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2023 Q4.

Since the total peaked, some 7,319 (92%) SKODA OCTAVIA CLASSIC SDI have been scrapped or exported.

During 2021 Q2 the number of SKODA OCTAVIA CLASSIC SDI 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 SKODA OCTAVIA CLASSIC SDI has fallen by 1,980. Licensed models have fallen by 2,149 and the SORNed total has increased by 169.

The 5 year trend shows a total decline of 481 SKODA OCTAVIA CLASSIC SDI models. Taxed models have declined by 465 and the SORNed total has fallen by 16.

77% of the remaining 644 SKODA OCTAVIA CLASSIC SDI in the UK are currently off the road.
