HOW MANY WANGYE ARE LEFT?

There are 142 WANGYE left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 633 WANGYE that are currently SORNED.

The total number of WANGYE was highest during 2009 Q2 (1,072). The number taxed topped out in 2009 Q2 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2024 Q4.

Since the total peaked, some 297 (28%) WANGYE have been scrapped or exported.

During 2014 Q2 the number of WANGYE 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 WANGYE has gained 275. Licensed models have fallen by 59 and the SORNed total has increased by 334.

The 5 year trend shows an overall increase of 212 WANGYE models. Taxed models have declined by 54 and the SORNed total has increased by 266.

82% of the remaining 775 WANGYE in the UK are currently off the road.
