UK vehicle statistics / Aston Martin

How many Aston Martin DB6 cars are left?

At the end of 2026 Q1, DfT recorded 442 licensed and 103 SORN vehicles in the UK within the Aston Martin DB6 generic-model group.

Looking at a DB6?

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 DB6 is off the road? A free SORN check shows whether it is currently SORN, taxed or untaxed.

Is the DB6 disappearing?

Licensed numbers peaked at 447 in 2025 Q2 and stand at 442 in 2026 Q1, down 1%. That is up 8% in the five years since 2021 Q1. A further 103 are declared SORN — 1 in 5 of the 545 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.
