HOW MANY ROVER 400 SERIES ARE LEFT?

There are 520 ROVER 400 SERIES left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 3,804 ROVER 400 SERIES that are currently SORNED.

The total number of ROVER 400 SERIES was highest during 1999 Q4 (359,727). The number taxed topped out in 1999 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2007 Q4.

Since the total peaked, some 355,403 (99%) ROVER 400 SERIES have been scrapped or exported.

During 2017 Q3 the number of ROVER 400 SERIES 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 400 SERIES has fallen by 10,441. Licensed models have fallen by 9,766 and the SORNed total has fallen by 675.

The 5 year trend shows a total decline of 1,636 ROVER 400 SERIES models. Taxed models have declined by 1,148 and the SORNed total has fallen by 488.

88% of the remaining 4,324 ROVER 400 SERIES in the UK are currently off the road.
