Abstract

Summary The life distribution of motorcars is examined over the period from 1950 to 1964. Age‐specific survival rates, derived from Dutch registrations, are averaged and lead to the life table shown in table 4. The deviations from average age‐specific survival rates show no significant variation over time nor over successive car generations. Since the registrations include an increasing number of used cars imported from Germany this apparent stability hides compensating changes in car scrap page. Since before the war the life expectancy of motorcars has increased from 8 to 11 years, and it is argued that this is due to the widening of the used car market. In the next stage, which is already well under way in Germany, new cars replace used cars, and rising apparent scrappage rates reflect the disposal of the latter by export.
