From just over 1,200 units in 2010, new vehicle registrations grew to 4,264 in 2014 before falling slightly in 2015 to 3,860 units. Meanwhile second hand vehicle registrations have had a phenomenal rise from 766 units in 2010 to 9,414 units last year (many of these, no doubt, being the Prius hybrids!).
In the last three years to 2015, 11,806 new vehicles and 19,939 second hand vehicles have been added to our roads! A LTA number I saw just recently puts  2  BIS central bankers’ speeches  105,000 registered vehicles on our roads this year (we of course have no idea about the unregistered vehicles!).
