Looking at a Q30?
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 Q30 is off the road? A free SORN check shows whether it is currently SORN, taxed or untaxed.
Is the Q30 disappearing?
Licensed numbers peaked at 4,881 in 2019 Q4 and stand at 4,647 in 2026 Q1, down 5%. That is down 3% in the five years since 2021 Q1. A further 77 are declared SORN — 1 in 61 of the 4,724 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.
When it shows up in the statistics
Infiniti Q30 first appears in the published DfT series in 2016 Q1. Earlier quarters in this file do not include it, so that quarter is not a production start date.
Q30 MOT pass rate
In 2024, 82% of 4,306 Infiniti Q30 MOTs passed first time — above the 71.2% UK average. Pass rate moves with age: 88.6% of cars aged 3–5 years passed first time, against 81.7% aged 6–9 years.
- Mechanical Brake Components — 2.7% of tests. Worn discs, pads or callipers. Routine wear, but it should be priced into the deal.
- Tread Depth — 2.5% of tests. Tyres below the 1.6mm legal limit. Budget for tyres, and treat it as a sign of how the car was maintained.
- Condition — 2.5% of tests. Corrosion, damage or wear on a tested component. Worth seeing in person, as the cost ranges from trivial to structural.
- Springs — 2.4% of tests. A broken or sagging coil spring. Replaced in pairs, so it is not the cheapest failure.
