HOW MANY ROVER 216I E 16V ARE LEFT?

There are 7 ROVER 216I E 16V left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 52 ROVER 216I E 16V that are currently SORNED.

The total number of ROVER 216I E 16V was highest during 2004 Q4 (2,570). The number taxed topped out in 2004 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2011 Q2.

Since the total peaked, some 2,511 (98%) ROVER 216I E 16V have been scrapped or exported.

During 2018 Q3 the number of ROVER 216I E 16V 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 216I E 16V has fallen by 281. Licensed models have fallen by 257 and the SORNed total has fallen by 24.

The 5 year trend shows a total decline of 37 ROVER 216I E 16V models. Taxed models have declined by 28 and the SORNed total has fallen by 9.

88% of the remaining 59 ROVER 216I E 16V in the UK are currently off the road.
