Vauxhall Astravan vans: how many are still registered?

5,729still registered

Most recorded on UK roads at once: 42,445 (2006 Q4) - 13.4% of that peak survives.

Disappearing at about 12.5% a year (the 2020–2025 trend). If that rate continued: around 2,936 in 2030, and under 1,000 around 2039.

3,213 of the survivors (56.0%) are declared off-road (SORN) rather than taxed.

Derivatives

DVLA also registers other body types under the Vauxhall Astravan nameplate. Each is counted on its own page, so every figure on this one is vans only.

By year

All 5,729 surviving Vauxhall Astravan vans, by the year each was built - not how many were on the road at the time. Across every year, 16,027 of these cars have gone since 2014, leaving 26.3% 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.
