HOW MANY ROVER 216 GSI ARE LEFT?

There are 19 ROVER 216 GSI left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 161 ROVER 216 GSI that are currently SORNED.

The total number of ROVER 216 GSI was highest during 1994 Q4 (25,286). The number taxed topped out in 1994 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2007 Q4.

Since the total peaked, some 25,106 (99%) ROVER 216 GSI have been scrapped or exported.

During 2016 Q2 the number of ROVER 216 GSI 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 ROVER 216 GSI has fallen by 222. Licensed models have fallen by 207 and the SORNed total has fallen by 15.

The 5 year trend shows a total decline of 50 ROVER 216 GSI models. Taxed models have declined by 39 and the SORNed total has fallen by 11.

89% of the remaining 180 ROVER 216 GSI in the UK are currently off the road.
