HOW MANY VOLVO V40 D S ARE LEFT?

There are 215 VOLVO V40 D S left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 217 VOLVO V40 D S that are currently SORNED.

The total number of VOLVO V40 D S was highest during 2004 Q4 (2,660). The number taxed topped out in 2004 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2022 Q1.

Since the total peaked, some 2,228 (84%) VOLVO V40 D S have been scrapped or exported.

During 2025 Q2 the number of VOLVO V40 D S 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 V40 D S has fallen by 1,728. Licensed models have fallen by 1,854 and the SORNed total has increased by 126.

The 5 year trend shows a total decline of 634 VOLVO V40 D S models. Taxed models have declined by 628 and the SORNed total has fallen by 6.

50% of the remaining 432 VOLVO V40 D S in the UK are currently off the road.
