HOW MANY MG METRO ARE LEFT?

There are 138 MG METRO left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 534 MG METRO that are currently SORNED.

The total number of MG METRO was highest during 1994 Q4 (75,377). The number taxed topped out in 1994 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2022 Q4.

Since the total peaked, some 74,705 (99%) MG METRO have been scrapped or exported.

During 2007 Q4 the number of MG METRO 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 MG METRO has gained 97. Licensed models have fallen by 5 and the SORNed total has increased by 102.

The 5 year trend shows an overall increase of 44 MG METRO models. Taxed models have grown by 42 and the SORNed total has increased by 2.

79% of the remaining 672 MG METRO in the UK are currently off the road.
