HOW MANY VOLVO 850 GLT ARE LEFT?

There are 102 VOLVO 850 GLT left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 212 VOLVO 850 GLT that are currently SORNED.

The total number of VOLVO 850 GLT was highest during 1999 Q4 (6,310). The number taxed topped out in 1999 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2007 Q4.

Since the total peaked, some 5,996 (95%) VOLVO 850 GLT have been scrapped or exported.

During 2019 Q4 the number of VOLVO 850 GLT 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 850 GLT has fallen by 484. Licensed models have fallen by 478 and the SORNed total has fallen by 6.

The 5 year trend shows a total decline of 112 VOLVO 850 GLT models. Taxed models have declined by 94 and the SORNed total has fallen by 18.

68% of the remaining 314 VOLVO 850 GLT in the UK are currently off the road.
