Derivatives
DVLA also registers other body types under the Talbot Express nameplate. Each is counted on its own page, so every figure on this one is lorries only.
By year
All 14 surviving Talbot Express lorries, by the year each was built - not how many were on the road at the time. DVLA records a build year for only 13 of them; the rest are registered without one and cannot be placed on the year-built bars. Across every year, 6 of these cars have gone since 2014, leaving 66.6% of the 2014 figure. That is the earliest real count of the same cars: DVLA publishes no production figures, so nothing here is a count of how many were built.
