Default 75 & ZT numbers

I have just posted these details on another thread but just so they don't get missed:

Wow....I got there in the end and free
Thanks for your note. As I’m sure the DVLA made clear, we are licensed re-sellers of their data and usually supply information on a commercial basis only. Our minimum order for DVLA queries is £250.

However, given the nature of your request, I happy to give you the information you require according to the latest data we have available from the DVLA, end of Q1 2009

Rover 75: 97,677 records (of which 96,657 were first registered after 1999 inclusive)
MG ZT: 19,267 records

You can tell I'm in purchasing now, the art of persuasion!!!! he he

Worrying numbers I would say!! depending on which way you look at it

Thats quite shocking figures for the Rover 75. Far worse than I expected, only 97,677 still registered out of a production run of 211,175.

As for the ZT, very good figures for a car that has been out of production for over four years, still 19,267 registered from a total production run of 27,149. Guess a few thousand were exported.

Nick.

I agree, Its amazing how quickly cars become classics nowadays. Its interesting now how many of us are seeing the prices for 75's and ZT's starting to increase a little. Long may it continue... this should in turn enable people to justify spending a little more to keep them on the road

Hi Pab, they are shocking but the trouble is due to modern day car values being so low the insurance companies just write the cars off even for a minor claim, our society has such a throw away culture and its not set to change soon....hopefully people are seeing what a good car the 75 & ZT are and will engage in keeping them on the road. They are definitely starting to get a more classic status now

agree..i remember the issue with the rear window which was broken and the insurance co wanted to write the vehicle off because the glass was unavailable.

About time, I had paid mine dear money back in 2000 (not that I'm willing to part with her)
