At the end of 2026 Q1, DfT recorded 4,807 licensed and 993 SORN vehicles in the UK within the Honda FR-V generic-model group.

Looking at a FR-V?

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

Is the FR-V disappearing?

Licensed numbers peaked at 13,899 in 2014 Q3 and stand at 4,807 in 2026 Q1, down 65%. That is down 55% in the five years since 2021 Q1. A further 993 are declared SORN — 1 in 6 of the 5,800 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.
