GT

Ford · on record 2005 to 2025

The Ford Gt is Ford's low volume mid engined supercar name, used for modern machines inspired by the GT40 racing programme rather than a derivative of an ordinary Ford family model. The Gt appealed mainly to buyers seeking a more sporting or distinctive choice than the maker's ordinary range. As the Gt ages, performance heritage and enthusiast demand give better examples a reason to be preserved even when routine daily use becomes less attractive.

Inside the surviving fleet

AutoCensus parses every DVLA variant description, so the fleet can be read by fuel and specification rather than as one number.

First registrations by year

When surviving examples first joined the British fleet.

New registrations

Vehicles first registered each year. A fleet still being sold shows here; a finished one shows only imports.

MOT reliability

DVSA test results for this family, 2005 to 2025.

 
Pass rate by year
Failure reason Failures Share of all tests
The calculated parking brake efficiency is too low 20 0.9%
Amalgamation of failures for all headlamp testers 12 0.5%
An obligatory lamp inoperative or less than 50% of the light sources illuminating 12 0.5%
The grooves of the tread pattern are not at least 1.6mm throughout a continuous band comprising the central three-quarters of the breadth of tread, and round the entire outer circumference of the tyre 12 0.5%
When the brake is fully applied there is no possibility of further travel of the lever because the lever is at the end of its working travel on the ratchet 11 0.5%
Steering rack gaiter or ball joint dust cover damaged or deteriorated 10 0.5%
Lamp emitted colour, position or intensity not in accordance with the requirements 9 0.4%
Parking brake efficiency below minimum requirement 8 0.4%

Counted across every recorded test, 2005 to 2025. Advisories are excluded.

Where the GT remains

Based on MOT test locations, 2025. Test location is a proxy: a vehicle is counted where it was last tested, not where it is kept.

Full methodology

Population history combines DVLA VEH0120 Q4 census observations through 2013 with the annual VEH0220 census from 2014 onward. Figures before 2014 cover Great Britain only. Historical VEH0120 is used only when its overlapping UK observations reconcile to the current canonical family definition. Vehicles are grouped into this family using the DVLA GenModel together with durable routing rules for known inconsistencies.

Variant figures are parsed from raw DVLA model descriptions and the original string is always retained. Configuration is only assigned where the model description explicitly identifies it; a blank configuration is not treated as a two door Wrangler. Blank transmission fields are shown as manual because DVLA records the field for automatic vehicles.

MOT figures count tests, not vehicles, and geographic figures count each vehicle at its most recent test location. The decline projection is a straight line fitted to the latest five years and is illustrative only.
