HOW MANY TALBOT SOLARA LS ARE LEFT?

There are 4 TALBOT SOLARA LS left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 5 TALBOT SOLARA LS that are currently SORNED.

The total number of TALBOT SOLARA LS was highest during 1994 Q4 (7,379). The number taxed topped out in 1994 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2007 Q4.

Since the total peaked, some 7,370 (100%) TALBOT SOLARA LS have been scrapped or exported.

During 2007 Q4 the number of TALBOT SOLARA LS 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 SOLARA LS has fallen by 3. Licensed models have fallen by 0 and the SORNed total has fallen by 3.

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

56% of the remaining 9 TALBOT SOLARA LS in the UK are currently off the road.
