HOW MANY TRS ARE LEFT?
There are 140 TRS left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 625 TRS that are currently SORNED.
There are currently more TRS, in total, than ever before. The number taxed topped out in 2022 Q3 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2025 Q2.
During 2021 Q1 the number of TRS 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.
The 5 year trend shows an overall increase of 682 TRS models. Taxed models have grown by 77 and the SORNed total has increased by 605.
82% of the remaining 765 TRS in the UK are currently off the road.
