There were not enough MOT tests of Vauxhall Monaros 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.
Registrations of Vauxhall Monaros for the first time in Great Britain peaked at 249 in 2006. In 2025, 0 were registered. With almost none registered new, the number on the road is likely to keep falling.

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.
DVSA lists 1 safety recall for the Vauxhall Monaro, launched on 17 May 2006.
A recall applies to cars built on particular dates or with particular VINs, not to every Vauxhall Monaro. 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.
