HOW MANY ROVER 218 D ARE LEFT?

There are 4 ROVER 218 D left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 43 ROVER 218 D that are currently SORNED.

The total number of ROVER 218 D was highest during 1997 Q4 (3,611). The number taxed topped out in 1997 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2007 Q4.

Since the total peaked, some 3,564 (99%) ROVER 218 D have been scrapped or exported.

During 2014 Q4 the number of ROVER 218 D 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 218 D has fallen by 56. Licensed models have fallen by 43 and the SORNed total has fallen by 13.

The 5 year trend shows a total decline of 15 ROVER 218 D models. Taxed models have declined by 7 and the SORNed total has fallen by 8.

91% of the remaining 47 ROVER 218 D in the UK are currently off the road.
