HOW MANY LAND ROVER DISCOVERY V8I ARE LEFT?

There are 129 LAND ROVER DISCOVERY V8I left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 753 LAND ROVER DISCOVERY V8I that are currently SORNED.

The total number of LAND ROVER DISCOVERY V8I was highest during 1999 Q4 (2,790). The number taxed topped out in 1999 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2023 Q1.

Since the total peaked, some 1,908 (68%) LAND ROVER DISCOVERY V8I have been scrapped or exported.

During 2015 Q4 the number of LAND ROVER DISCOVERY V8I 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 LAND ROVER DISCOVERY V8I has fallen by 364. Licensed models have fallen by 532 and the SORNed total has increased by 168.

The 5 year trend shows a total decline of 133 LAND ROVER DISCOVERY V8I models. Taxed models have declined by 111 and the SORNed total has fallen by 22.

85% of the remaining 882 LAND ROVER DISCOVERY V8I in the UK are currently off the road.
