Disappearing at about 2.5% a year (the 2020–2025 trend). If that rate continued: around 39 in 2030.

By year

All 49 surviving Rover Coupe cars, by the year each was built - not how many were on the road at the time. Across every year, 25 of these cars have gone since 2014, leaving 65.7% 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.
