HOW MANY MG B GT V8 ARE LEFT?

There are 740 MG B GT V8 left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 263 MG B GT V8 that are currently SORNED.

There are currently more MG B GT V8, in total, than ever before. The number taxed topped out in 2024 Q1 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2013 Q4.

During 2010 Q4 the number of MG B GT V8 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.
