HOW MANY SYM CITY ARE LEFT?

There are 19 SYM CITY left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 27 SYM CITY that are currently SORNED.

The total number of SYM CITY was highest during 2015 Q1 (82). The number taxed topped out in 2013 Q1 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2023 Q4.

Since the total peaked, some 36 (44%) SYM CITY have been scrapped or exported.

During 2021 Q3 the number of SYM CITY 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 SYM CITY has fallen by 28. Licensed models have fallen by 39 and the SORNed total has increased by 11.

The 5 year trend shows a total decline of 23 SYM CITY models. Taxed models have declined by 27 and the SORNed total has increased by 4.

59% of the remaining 46 SYM CITY in the UK are currently off the road.
