HOW MANY ROVER 45 IE 16V ARE LEFT?

There are 55 ROVER 45 IE 16V left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 158 ROVER 45 IE 16V that are currently SORNED.

The total number of ROVER 45 IE 16V was highest during 2004 Q4 (4,626). The number taxed topped out in 2004 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2017 Q2.

Since the total peaked, some 4,413 (95%) ROVER 45 IE 16V have been scrapped or exported.

During 2021 Q1 the number of ROVER 45 IE 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 45 IE 16V has fallen by 1,162. Licensed models have fallen by 1,178 and the SORNed total has increased by 16.

The 5 year trend shows a total decline of 187 ROVER 45 IE 16V models. Taxed models have declined by 169 and the SORNed total has fallen by 18.
