MG 6: how many are still registered?

1,603still registered

MG 6 cars still registered with DVLA (licensed or SORN), across 16 recorded variants.

Most recorded on UK roads at once: 2,586 (2017 Q3) - 61.9% of that peak survives.

Disappearing at about 8.6% a year (the 2020–2025 trend). If that rate continued: around 1,020 in 2030, and under 1,000 around 2031.

274 of the survivors (17.0%) are declared off-road (SORN) rather than taxed.

By year

All 1,603 surviving MG 6 cars, by the year each was built - not how many were on the road at the time. Across every year, 755 of these cars have gone since 2014, leaving 56.7% 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.
