Jaguar S Type: how many are still registered?

16,860still registered

Jaguar S Type cars still registered with DVLA (licensed or SORN), across 48 recorded variants.

Most recorded on UK roads at once: 58,297 (2007 Q4) - 28.9% of that peak survives.

Disappearing at about 10.0% a year (the 2020–2025 trend). If that rate continued: around 9,954 in 2030, and under 1,000 around 2052.

8,517 of the survivors (50.5%) are declared off-road (SORN) rather than taxed.

Derivatives

DVLA also registers other body types under the Jaguar S Type nameplate. Each is counted on its own page, so every figure on this one is cars only.

By year

All 16,860 surviving Jaguar S Type cars, by the year each was built - not how many were on the road at the time. Across every year, 30,478 of these cars have gone since 2014, leaving 35.2% 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.
