Population history

Licensed and SORN vehicles at each census. Filters apply to the population, MOT and registration figures together.

Licensed SORN Latest census observation SOURCE DVLA VEH0120 / VEH0220

At the average decline recorded over the latest five years, the licensed fleet would reach zero around 2042.

Illustrative projection only; vehicle populations rarely decline linearly. Late fleets typically flatten as surviving examples enter preservation.

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, 2007 to 2025.

 
Pass rate by year
Failure reason Failures Share of all tests
A transmission shaft constant velocity joint boot severely deteriorated 7,258 3.8%
Brake pipe damaged or excessively corroded 6,307 3.3%
A rear registration plate lamp or light source missing or inoperative in the case of multiple lamps or light sources 5,302 2.8%
Wiper blade missing or obviously not clearing the windscreen 3,715 1.9%
Tyre tread depth not in accordance with the requirements 3,116 1.6%
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 2,974 1.6%
Headlamp reflector or lens slightly defective 2,924 1.5%
Wiper blade defective 2,558 1.3%

Counted across every recorded test, 2007 to 2025. Advisories are excluded.

Where the Pixo 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 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.
