UK vehicle statistics / Nissan

How many Nissan Np300 cars are left?

At the end of 2026 Q1, DfT recorded 4,828 licensed and 279 SORN vehicles in the UK within the Nissan Np300 generic-model group.

Looking at a Np300?

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 Np300 is off the road? A free SORN check shows whether it is currently SORN, taxed or untaxed.

Is the Np300 disappearing?

Licensed numbers peaked at 5,905 in 2017 Q4 and stand at 4,828 in 2026 Q1, down 18%. That is down 12% in the five years since 2021 Q1. A further 279 are declared SORN — 1 in 18 of the 5,107 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.
