Data from this website http://howmanyleft.co.uk/?q=s2000 Compiled from 3 categories S2000, S2000Gt and S2000 GT100 edition.
Looks like the middle of 2009 was the peak time for S2000's in the UK its becoming rarer by the day.
Apologies if its a repost I've not been on the forum much recently.


Edited to included data on 1999 vehicles (fat fingered the copy and paste into excel first time)

 

A very interesting website

So there's zero 1999s left? I must be imagining the one in my garage.

 

Yeah me too... The one on my drive must be a mirage

 

I drove from Stansted to Crystal Place Sat afternoon, Back on Sun Morn and to Harlow and back Sun afternoon, didnt see one any where.

 

So are we to take it then that at the peak of cars on the road there were 8015 cars (all variants) and with the latest figures there are 424 less?

Have these missing 424 been written off then?

If that were the case I would have thought that there were more cars written off than that in an 11 year period or am I missing something?

 

I don't think you can't read the data quite like that..

cars will have been written off and also new ones registered in the same year.. so they would just cancel each other out.

I guess from this analysis there are at least 424 missing ones..

what surprised me was actually how many cars there were considering how few you see around.

 

Surely SORN cars are licensed and are included in the licensed figure and should not be added in again?
ie In 2007 there were 7598 cars licensed of which 265 were SORN.

 

I think by 'licenced' they mean taxed ..... and SORN'ed cars aint taxed.

 

I think that you will find that for a car to be considered as licensed it will have to have a V5 and a registration number which is displayed on the license plate. It must not necessarily have a tax disc.
SORN vehicles are licensed but not taxed.
