HOW MANY VOLKSWAGEN PASSAT C ARE LEFT?

There are 10 VOLKSWAGEN PASSAT C left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 22 VOLKSWAGEN PASSAT C that are currently SORNED.

The total number of VOLKSWAGEN PASSAT C was highest during 1994 Q4 (5,073). The number taxed topped out in 1994 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2007 Q4.

Since the total peaked, some 5,041 (99%) VOLKSWAGEN PASSAT C have been scrapped or exported.

During 2014 Q3 the number of VOLKSWAGEN PASSAT C 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 PASSAT C has fallen by 15. Licensed models have fallen by 10 and the SORNed total has fallen by 5.

The 5 year trend shows a total decline of 7 VOLKSWAGEN PASSAT C models. Taxed models have declined by 2 and the SORNed total has fallen by 5.

69% of the remaining 32 VOLKSWAGEN PASSAT C in the UK are currently off the road.
