How many left..

I could sit and play with this for hours  Grin
 
It shows current UK car numbers by model and engine size either still taxed or SORN'd
 
i think maybe we should sticky it somewhere on the forum, makes interesting reading and looks to be updated quarterly.
 
Some interesting figures, especially the new registrations, there looks to be the odd Scorpio still being first registered as late as last year, 2010! Shocked
 
Imported ones possibly? Surely not new Grin

According to this there are only 28 Ultima TD Auto's left,  
 
21 taxed and 7 SORN'd
 
Two of them were at Harewood Wink

I don't think it shows 1st registrations Stuart.... it just shows those being registered as in taxed I think.
 
Just checked Corsairs and there are just over 200 on the road according to the site..... probably not far off!

Uses the DVLA database Geoff so it should be as accurate as we're going to get, I daresay there are a few pre-technology older models that have dropped off the radar and are still hiding in garages etc  
 
Baz,
 
when the list first appears showing the various models/engine types etc, click on an actual model.  
 
On the new page that opens,  the third column shows new registrations within the last ten years.
 
I'm wondering if they are imported models and given "new" age related plates?
 
OR
 
restored vehicles that have lost their original identity?
 
I'm kinda sure we'd have heard about any 60 plate Scorpios by now Grin
