HOW MANY VOLVO 740 SE ARE LEFT?

There are 44 VOLVO 740 SE left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 140 VOLVO 740 SE that are currently SORNED.

The total number of VOLVO 740 SE was highest during 1994 Q4 (6,461). The number taxed topped out in 1994 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2007 Q4.

Since the total peaked, some 6,277 (97%) VOLVO 740 SE have been scrapped or exported.

During 2017 Q2 the number of VOLVO 740 SE 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 740 SE has fallen by 129. Licensed models have fallen by 143 and the SORNed total has increased by 14.

The 5 year trend shows a total decline of 36 VOLVO 740 SE models. Taxed models have declined by 47 and the SORNed total has increased by 11.

76% of the remaining 184 VOLVO 740 SE in the UK are currently off the road.
