HOW MANY ROVER 3500 AUTO ARE LEFT?

There are 307 ROVER 3500 AUTO left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 198 ROVER 3500 AUTO that are currently SORNED.

The total number of ROVER 3500 AUTO was highest during 1994 Q4 (917). The number taxed topped out in 1994 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2009 Q1.

Since the total peaked, some 412 (45%) ROVER 3500 AUTO have been scrapped or exported.

During 2009 Q1 the number of ROVER 3500 AUTO 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 3500 AUTO has gained 76. Licensed models have increased by 80 and the SORNed total has fallen by 4.

The 5 year trend shows an overall increase of 21 ROVER 3500 AUTO models. Taxed models have grown by 12 and the SORNed total has increased by 9.

61% of the surviving 505 ROVER 3500 AUTO in the UK are still on the road.
