Looking at a Murano?

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.

Is the Murano disappearing?

Licensed numbers peaked at 2,524 in 2014 Q3 and stand at 519 in 2026 Q1, down 79%. That is down 63% in the five years since 2021 Q1. A further 466 are declared SORN — 1 in 2 of the 985 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.

Before you buy

  • Ask why it was off the road — Of the 985 Murano vehicles still on the DVLA record, 1 in 2 is SORN (466 at 2026 Q1). A car that has been laid up needs a closer look at brakes, tyres and the MOT history.
  • Budget for a shrinking fleet — Licensed numbers are down 79% from the 2014 Q3 peak of 2,524. Fewer cars on the road usually means fewer donor parts and fewer specialists.
  • Check the actual Murano — These figures describe the model group. Enter the registration for that vehicle's free MOT, tax and mileage record before you pay a deposit.
