Cx500B
Honda · on record 1994 to 2025
Red List classification, from population, five year trajectory and survival against peak. Reviewed each census.
2025 census
25.8% of the peak fleet remains licensed
peak 66 in 1994 · +2 vehicles a year, five year trend
Population history
Licensed and SORN vehicles at each census. Filters apply to the population, MOT and registration figures together.
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.
Recent UK first registrations
This family is no longer sold new. These figures are imports and historic vehicles joining the British register for the first time.
MOT reliability
DVSA test results for this family, 2007 to 2020.
| Failure reason | Failures | Share of all tests |
|---|---|---|
| A tyre has any of its ply or cords exposed | 2 | 11.8% |
| Excessive wear in a pin and/or bush or pin/bearing, for example: 2mm for a 12mm diameter pin; 3mm for a 25mm diameter pin; 10% of the pin diameter for pins over 25mm diameter | 2 | 11.8% |
| Amalgamation of failures for all headlamp testers | 1 | 5.9% |
| A wiper blade insecure, missing or in such a condition that it does not clear the windscreen effectively to give the driver an adequate view of the road (through the windscreen) to the left and right sides of the vehicle, as well as to the front | 1 | 5.9% |
| A wheel with more than one loose or missing wheel nut, bolt or stud | 1 | 5.9% |
| A rear registration plate lamp not illuminating the rear registration plate | 1 | 5.9% |
Counted across every recorded test, 2007 to 2020. Advisories are excluded.
Where the Cx500B remains
Based on MOT test locations, 2020. Test location is a proxy: a vehicle is counted where it was last tested, not where it is kept.
| Postcode area | Vehicles tested | Pass rate |

| B | 1 | 100% |
How this record was calculated
Full methodology
Population figures count vehicles recorded as licensed or SORN in the DVLA quarterly extract. Figures before 2014 cover Great Britain only. Vehicles are grouped into this family by the DVLA GenModel key shown above, with routing rules for known inconsistencies.
Variant figures are parsed from raw DVLA model descriptions and the original string is always retained. 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.
