By year

All 24 surviving Austin A135 cars, by the year each was built - not how many were on the road at the time. DVLA records a build year for only 8 of them; the rest are registered without one and cannot be placed on the year-built bars. Across every year, 3 of these cars have gone since 2014, leaving 72.7% of the 2014 figure. That is the earliest real count of the same cars: DVLA publishes no production figures, so nothing here is a count of how many were built.
