HOW MANY AUSTIN MINI ARE LEFT?

There are 8,674 AUSTIN MINI left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 18,605 AUSTIN MINI that are currently SORNED.

The total number of AUSTIN MINI was highest during 1994 Q4 (234,906). The number taxed topped out in 1994 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2023 Q4.

Since the total peaked, some 207,627 (88%) AUSTIN MINI have been scrapped or exported.

During 2009 Q1 the number of AUSTIN MINI that were off the road (SORN) exceeded the number that were licensed for the first time. This could indicate the owners are reluctant to sell or scrap their car as they view them as a potential future classic.

In the last 10 years the total number of AUSTIN MINI has gained 3,768. Licensed models have fallen by 211 and the SORNed total has increased by 3,979.

The 5 year trend shows an overall increase of 1,143 AUSTIN MINI models. Taxed models have grown by 840 and the SORNed total has increased by 303.

68% of the remaining 27,279 AUSTIN MINI in the UK are currently off the road.
