HOW MANY VOLKSWAGEN BORA S ARE LEFT?

There are 321 VOLKSWAGEN BORA S left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 441 VOLKSWAGEN BORA S that are currently SORNED.

The total number of VOLKSWAGEN BORA S was highest during 2005 Q4 (6,104). The number taxed topped out in 2005 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2020 Q2.

Since the total peaked, some 5,342 (88%) VOLKSWAGEN BORA S have been scrapped or exported.

During 2023 Q4 the number of VOLKSWAGEN BORA S 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 VOLKSWAGEN BORA S has fallen by 3,234. Licensed models have fallen by 3,430 and the SORNed total has increased by 196.

The 5 year trend shows a total decline of 818 VOLKSWAGEN BORA S models. Taxed models have declined by 797 and the SORNed total has fallen by 21.

58% of the remaining 762 VOLKSWAGEN BORA S in the UK are currently off the road.
