Looking at a GT?

Population figures cannot tell you whether one particular car is taxed, MOT-valid or safe to buy.

Check its registration free for the official tax, MOT and mileage record. If the car is still worth pursuing, the optional £9.99 full history check adds outstanding-finance, stolen and insurance write-off checks.

Wondering whether one particular GT is off the road? A free SORN check shows whether it is currently SORN, taxed or untaxed.

Is the GT disappearing?

Licensed numbers peaked at 6,452 in 2014 Q3 and stand at 919 in 2026 Q1, down 86%. That is down 67% in the five years since 2021 Q1. A further 1,171 are declared SORN — 1 in 2 of the 2,090 still on the DVLA record is off the road, laid up, part-restored or waiting to be sold.

A falling population is worth knowing before you buy: it usually means fewer donor cars, fewer specialists and slower parts supply, and it is why a good example of a scarce model can hold its price while a neglected one is hard to sell at any price.

GT MOT pass rate

In 2024, 55.7% of 1,320 Alfa Romeo GT MOTs passed first time — below the 71.2% UK average.

  • Suspension Arms — 9.6% of tests. Worn arms or bushes. A common age-related repair that affects handling and tyre wear.
  • Headlamp Aim — 9.2% of tests. Headlights pointing too high or low. Cheap to adjust, and common on every make.
  • Brake Performance — 7.8% of tests. The brakes underperformed on the rolling road. Expect brake work rather than an adjustment.
  • Washers — 7.7% of tests. Empty or blocked washers. Trivial, but again a sign of the last owner's care.

Before you buy

  • Suspension Arms — 9.6% of tests in 2024. Worn arms or bushes. A common age-related repair that affects handling and tyre wear.
  • Headlamp Aim — 9.2% of tests in 2024. Headlights pointing too high or low. Cheap to adjust, and common on every make.
  • Brake Performance — 7.8% of tests in 2024. The brakes underperformed on the rolling road. Expect brake work rather than an adjustment.
  • Washers — 7.7% of tests in 2024. Empty or blocked washers. Trivial, but again a sign of the last owner's care.
  • Ask why it was off the road — Of the 2,090 GT vehicles still on the DVLA record, 1 in 2 is SORN (1,171 at 2026 Q1). A car that has been laid up needs a closer look at brakes, tyres and the MOT history.
  • Budget for a shrinking fleet — Licensed numbers are down 86% from the 2014 Q3 peak of 6,452. Fewer cars on the road usually means fewer donor parts and fewer specialists.
  • Check the actual GT — These figures describe the model group. Enter the registration for that vehicle's free MOT, tax and mileage record before you pay a deposit.
