HOW MANY RILEY ELF AUTO ARE LEFT?

There are 4 RILEY ELF AUTO left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 3 RILEY ELF AUTO that are currently SORNED.

The total number of RILEY ELF AUTO was highest during 1999 Q4 (10). The number taxed topped out in 1999 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2022 Q4.

Since the total peaked, some 3 (30%) RILEY ELF AUTO have been scrapped or exported.

During 2016 Q1 the number of RILEY ELF AUTO 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 RILEY ELF AUTO has gained 3. Licensed models have increased by 2 and the SORNed total has increased by 1.

The 5 year trend shows an overall increase of 2 RILEY ELF AUTO models. Taxed models have grown by 1 and the SORNed total has increased by 1.

57% of the surviving 7 RILEY ELF AUTO in the UK are still on the road.
