HOW MANY SMC DA ARE LEFT?

There are 11 SMC DA left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 11 SMC DA that are currently SORNED.

The total number of SMC DA was highest during 2021 Q2 (27). The number taxed topped out in 2021 Q2 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2025 Q1.

Since the total peaked, some 5 (19%) SMC DA have been scrapped or exported.

During 2024 Q4 the number of SMC DA 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.

The 5 year trend shows an overall increase of 6 SMC DA models. Taxed models have declined by 1 and the SORNed total has increased by 7.

50% of the surviving 22 SMC DA in the UK are still on the road.
