Is the Longjia fleet shrinking?
Adding up every published Longjia model group: Licensed numbers peaked at 1,650 in 2017 Q4 and stand at 154 in 2026 Q1, down 91%. That is down 79% in the five years since 2021 Q1.
Before you buy
- Budget for a shrinking fleet — Licensed numbers are down 91% from the 2017 Q4 peak of 1,650. Fewer cars on the road usually means fewer donor parts and fewer specialists.
- Check the actual Longjia — These figures describe the model group. Enter the registration for that vehicle's free MOT, tax and mileage record before you pay a deposit.

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.
