HOW MANY TALBOT SAMBA LE ARE LEFT?

There are 3 TALBOT SAMBA LE left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 15 TALBOT SAMBA LE that are currently SORNED.

The total number of TALBOT SAMBA LE was highest during 1994 Q4 (5,554). The number taxed topped out in 1994 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2020 Q2.

Since the total peaked, some 5,536 (100%) TALBOT SAMBA LE have been scrapped or exported.

During 2007 Q4 the number of TALBOT SAMBA LE 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 TALBOT SAMBA LE has gained 2. Licensed models have fallen by 0 and the SORNed total has increased by 2.

The 5 year trend shows a total decline of 1 TALBOT SAMBA LE models. Taxed models have grown by 1 and the SORNed total has fallen by 2.

83% of the remaining 18 TALBOT SAMBA LE in the UK are currently off the road.
