UK vehicle statistics / KGM

How many KGM cars are left?

At the end of 2026 Q1, DfT recorded 6,886 licensed and 74 SORN KGM vehicles in the UK, across 6 published model groups. That means 1 in 94 surviving KGM is currently off the road.

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.
