HOW MANY VAUXHALL ASTRA S MERIT ARE LEFT?

There are 25 VAUXHALL ASTRA S MERIT left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 192 VAUXHALL ASTRA S MERIT that are currently SORNED.

The total number of VAUXHALL ASTRA S MERIT was highest during 1994 Q4 (109,532). The number taxed topped out in 1994 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2007 Q4.

Since the total peaked, some 109,315 (100%) VAUXHALL ASTRA S MERIT have been scrapped or exported.

During 2012 Q2 the number of VAUXHALL ASTRA S MERIT 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 VAUXHALL ASTRA S MERIT has fallen by 74. Licensed models have fallen by 61 and the SORNed total has fallen by 13.

The 5 year trend shows a total decline of 29 VAUXHALL ASTRA S MERIT models. Taxed models have declined by 19 and the SORNed total has fallen by 10.

88% of the remaining 217 VAUXHALL ASTRA S MERIT in the UK are currently off the road.
