HOW MANY ROVER 216 GTI ARE LEFT?

There are 19 ROVER 216 GTI left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 100 ROVER 216 GTI that are currently SORNED.

The total number of ROVER 216 GTI was highest during 1994 Q4 (12,281). The number taxed topped out in 1994 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2007 Q4.

Since the total peaked, some 12,162 (99%) ROVER 216 GTI have been scrapped or exported.

During 2014 Q2 the number of ROVER 216 GTI 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 GTI has fallen by 58. Licensed models have fallen by 49 and the SORNed total has fallen by 9.

The 5 year trend shows a total decline of 15 ROVER 216 GTI models. Taxed models have declined by 8 and the SORNed total has fallen by 7.

84% of the remaining 119 ROVER 216 GTI in the UK are currently off the road.
