The total number of SMC SBF was highest during 2003 Q4 (13). The number taxed topped out in 2003 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2008 Q3.

Since the total peaked, some 11 (85%) SMC SBF have been scrapped or exported.

During 2008 Q3 the number of SMC SBF 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.
