How many Honda CRX cars are left in Great Britain?
There were 103 Honda CRX cars licensed in Great Britain at the end of March 2026, and a further 508 declared off the road (SORN).
That is 94.3% fewer than the peak of 1,804 in 2002.
There were not enough MOT tests of Honda CRX cars in 2025 to publish reliable figures: we need at least 1,000 tests of cars aged three and over. Cars have their first MOT at three years old, so newer models appear once they reach that age. How we work out MOT figures.
Honda CRX registrations over time
Registrations of Honda CRX cars for the first time in Great Britain peaked at 156 in 2002. In 2025, 1 were registered. With almost none registered new, the number on the road is likely to keep falling.

Honda CRX safety recalls
DVSA lists 1 safety recall for the Honda CRX, launched on 3 May 1994.
The gear lever position may not match the transmission mode selected
Launched 3 May 1994DVSA recall R/1994/026
Defect
The transmission shift cable lock pin may become ineffective. In consequence the gear lever position may not match the actual gear position selected in the transmission.
Remedy
Recall the affected vehicles and replace the lock pin with a modified type.
A recall applies to cars built on particular dates or with particular VINs, not to every Honda CRX. The details come from manufacturers through DVSA, which says they may be delayed or
incomplete. To check a specific car, use GOV.UK’s vehicle recall check or ask the manufacturer or a
dealer. How we match recalls to models.
