HOW MANY SYM SYMPLY 50 ARE LEFT?

There are 59 SYM SYMPLY 50 left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 384 SYM SYMPLY 50 that are currently SORNED.

The total number of SYM SYMPLY 50 was highest during 2011 Q3 (1,055). The number taxed topped out in 2011 Q2 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2022 Q4.

Since the total peaked, some 612 (58%) SYM SYMPLY 50 have been scrapped or exported.

During 2017 Q1 the number of SYM SYMPLY 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 SYMPLY 50 has fallen by 333. Licensed models have fallen by 443 and the SORNed total has increased by 110.

The 5 year trend shows a total decline of 137 SYM SYMPLY 50 models. Taxed models have declined by 122 and the SORNed total has fallen by 15.

87% of the remaining 443 SYM SYMPLY 50 in the UK are currently off the road.
