How many S2000 are left in the UK?
The exact current count of Honda S2000 sports cars in the United Kingdom is not published as a single, up-to-date figure. The most reliable way to determine it is to query official DVLA data, which records vehicles by make and model and by licensing status.
What the public data can tell us (and what it doesn’t)
Public counts are not released as a simple total. They are typically broken out by make and model and by licensing status (Licensed vs. SORN). To obtain a precise number, you need to extract and sum the relevant records from DVLA’s open data sets.
- DVLA open data releases that list vehicles by make and model, including licensing status (Licensed or SORN).
- UK government data portals (data.gov.uk) where DVLA and related statistics are published in downloadable formats (CSV/Excel).
- DVLA "Licensed vehicles by make/model" datasets that allow filtering specifically for Honda and S2000.
- Official DVLA notes on data recency and refresh cycles to understand the date of any counts you extract.
Using these official data sources will give you the most accurate and up-to-date count. However, counts can vary depending on whether you include cars off the road (SORN) or not, and on the date of the data release.
How to calculate the latest count yourself
Follow these steps to compute the current number from official sources:
- Visit the DVLA open data portal and locate the dataset that lists vehicles by make and model.
- Filter the dataset for Make: Honda and Model: S2000.
- Choose the status filter for Licensed to count road-registered examples; you can also include SORN if you want the total registered with the DVLA, whether on the road or off-road.
- Download the data (CSV or Excel) and sum the relevant rows to get a current count.
- Note the data’s date stamp and consider refreshing on a future DVLA release for ongoing accuracy.
In practice, the official count is only as up-to-date as the latest DVLA release, and there can be a lag between registrations and reported figures. Enthusiasts often supplement with club registries and private sales data, but these sources are not official counts.
Summary
There is no single published figure for how many Honda S2000s remain in the UK. To obtain an exact, up-to-date number, consult the DVLA Open Data datasets and perform a targeted filter for Honda S2000, considering both Licensed and SORN statuses. For enthusiasts, these figures are a useful baseline, but variations can occur depending on the data source and the date of the release.
