HOW MANY VOLVO 245 DL ARE LEFT?

There are 41 VOLVO 245 DL left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 61 VOLVO 245 DL that are currently SORNED.

The total number of VOLVO 245 DL was highest during 1994 Q4 (14,098). The number taxed topped out in 1994 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2008 Q4.

Since the total peaked, some 13,996 (99%) VOLVO 245 DL have been scrapped or exported.

During 2010 Q1 the number of VOLVO 245 DL 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 VOLVO 245 DL has gained 5. Licensed models have fallen by 4 and the SORNed total has increased by 9.

The 5 year trend shows a total decline of 1 VOLVO 245 DL models. Taxed models have grown by 1 and the SORNed total has fallen by 2.

60% of the remaining 102 VOLVO 245 DL in the UK are currently off the road.
