Is the Alpine fleet shrinking?
Adding up every published Alpine model group: 3,676 are licensed as of 2026 Q1 — the highest count in the published series, so the Alpine range is still arriving on UK roads rather than leaving them. That is up 824% in the five years since 2021 Q1. A further 190 are declared SORN — 1 in 20 of the 3,866 still on the DVLA record is off the road, laid up, part-restored or waiting to be sold.

How to read these numbers
Licensed means taxed and legal to use on the road at the end of the quarter. SORN means the keeper has declared it off the road — it still exists, but it is not in use. A model group's total is the best available proxy for how many survive, and a shrinking one means fewer donor cars, fewer specialists and slower parts supply.
