How many Rover 60s are left in Great Britain?

There were 139 Rover 60s licensed in Great Britain at the end of March 2026, and a further 71 declared off the road (SORN). That is 36.5% fewer than the peak of 219 in 1999.

Rover 60 MOT reliability

There were not enough MOT tests of Rover 60s 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.

Rover 60 engine sizes and fuel types

Of the 141 Rover 60s licensed in the UK at the end of 2025, 79.4% have an engine of 1,901cc to 2,000cc, and 13.5% have an engine of 1,501cc to 1,600cc.

United Kingdom figures from DfT table VEH0220 (licensed cars at the end of each year, SORN excluded), so they differ slightly from the Great Britain counts elsewhere on this page. How we use engine sizes.

Rover 60 safety recalls

We found no recalls for the Rover 60 in DVSA’s records since 1992. That does not mean none apply: DVSA sometimes records a recall under a range or chassis name we cannot match to a model. Check a specific car on GOV.UK’s vehicle recall check.

A recall applies to cars built on particular dates or with particular VINs, not to every Rover 60. 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.
