HOW MANY TRIUMPH SPITFIRE MK3 ARE LEFT?

There are 312 TRIUMPH SPITFIRE MK3 left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 237 TRIUMPH SPITFIRE MK3 that are currently SORNED.

There are currently more TRIUMPH SPITFIRE MK3, in total, than ever before. The number taxed topped out in 1999 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2018 Q1.

During 2017 Q4 the number of TRIUMPH SPITFIRE MK3 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 TRIUMPH SPITFIRE MK3 has gained 78. Licensed models have increased by 42 and the SORNed total has increased by 36.

The 5 year trend shows an overall increase of 23 TRIUMPH SPITFIRE MK3 models. Taxed models have grown by 1 and the SORNed total has increased by 22.

57% of the surviving 549 TRIUMPH SPITFIRE MK3 in the UK are still on the road.
