HOW MANY VAUXHALL ASTRA LS 16V ARE LEFT?

There are 1,437 VAUXHALL ASTRA LS 16V left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 2,890 VAUXHALL ASTRA LS 16V that are currently SORNED.

The total number of VAUXHALL ASTRA LS 16V was highest during 2005 Q4 (64,631). The number taxed topped out in 2005 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2020 Q2.

Since the total peaked, some 60,304 (93%) VAUXHALL ASTRA LS 16V have been scrapped or exported.

During 2022 Q4 the number of VAUXHALL ASTRA LS 16V 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.
