HOW MANY SYM DD 50 ARE LEFT?

There are 28 SYM DD 50 left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 391 SYM DD 50 that are currently SORNED.

The total number of SYM DD 50 was highest during 2005 Q4 (1,201). The number taxed topped out in 2005 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2024 Q2.

Since the total peaked, some 782 (65%) SYM DD 50 have been scrapped or exported.

During 2015 Q3 the number of SYM DD 50 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 DD 50 has fallen by 192. Licensed models have fallen by 289 and the SORNed total has increased by 97.

The 5 year trend shows a total decline of 67 SYM DD 50 models. Taxed models have declined by 71 and the SORNed total has increased by 4.

93% of the remaining 419 SYM DD 50 in the UK are currently off the road.
