Derivatives
DVLA also registers other body types under the Volkswagen Delivery VAN nameplate. Each is counted on its own page, so every figure on this one is vans only.
By year
All 2,362 surviving Volkswagen Delivery VAN vans, by the year each was built - not how many were on the road at the time. DVLA records a build year for only 2,046 of them; the rest are registered without one and cannot be placed on the year-built bars.
Vans joining a UK register each year, and how many of that year's arrivals are still registered now (the darker part of each bar). For an import this is the year it arrived, not the year it was built. DVLA's first-registration series starts in 2001, well after the Volkswagen Delivery VAN was being sold new, so these are almost entirely imports rather than the car's original sales.
