HOW MANY ROVER V8 S ARE LEFT?

There are 7 ROVER V8 S left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 14 ROVER V8 S that are currently SORNED.

The total number of ROVER V8 S was highest during 1994 Q4 (52). The number taxed topped out in 1994 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2020 Q4.

Since the total peaked, some 31 (60%) ROVER V8 S have been scrapped or exported.

During 2009 Q4 the number of ROVER V8 S 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 V8 S has fallen by 0. Licensed models have increased by 1 and the SORNed total has fallen by 1.

The 5 year trend shows a total decline of 1 ROVER V8 S models. Taxed models have grown by 2 and the SORNed total has fallen by 3.

67% of the remaining 21 ROVER V8 S in the UK are currently off the road.
