Opel Corsa: how many are still registered?

75still registered

Opel Corsa cars still registered with DVLA (licensed or SORN), across 8 recorded variants.

Most recorded on UK roads at once: 260 (2009 Q2) - 28.8% of that peak survives.

Disappearing at about 8.2% a year (the 2020–2025 trend). If that rate continued: around 46 in 2030.

32 of the survivors (42.6%) are declared off-road (SORN) rather than taxed.

Derivatives

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

By year

All 75 surviving Opel Corsa cars, by the year each was built - not how many were on the road at the time. Across every year, 151 of these cars have gone since 2014, leaving 30.4% 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.
