HOW MANY VOLVO S40 D ARE LEFT?

There are 18 VOLVO S40 D left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 51 VOLVO S40 D that are currently SORNED.

The total number of VOLVO S40 D was highest during 2002 Q4 (961). The number taxed topped out in 2002 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2018 Q1.

Since the total peaked, some 892 (93%) VOLVO S40 D have been scrapped or exported.

During 2020 Q4 the number of VOLVO S40 D 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 S40 D has fallen by 309. Licensed models have fallen by 317 and the SORNed total has increased by 8.

The 5 year trend shows a total decline of 51 VOLVO S40 D models. Taxed models have declined by 46 and the SORNed total has fallen by 5.

74% of the remaining 69 VOLVO S40 D in the UK are currently off the road.
