HOW MANY MG ZR 160 ARE LEFT?

There are 102 MG ZR 160 left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 190 MG ZR 160 that are currently SORNED.

The total number of MG ZR 160 was highest during 2007 Q4 (767). The number taxed topped out in 2006 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2021 Q1.

Since the total peaked, some 475 (62%) MG ZR 160 have been scrapped or exported.

During 2019 Q4 the number of MG ZR 160 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 ZR 160 has fallen by 270. Licensed models have fallen by 360 and the SORNed total has increased by 90.

The 5 year trend shows a total decline of 83 MG ZR 160 models. Taxed models have declined by 58 and the SORNed total has fallen by 25.

65% of the remaining 292 MG ZR 160 in the UK are currently off the road.
