How many BMW and Mini - R52/R56 does everyone think are on the UK roads?

I recon 2M

500k as 3 years or younger

Is there a way of finding out?

Could well be!
According to this article:
Quote BMW Group achieved record UK new car sales in 2007 with 169,236 BMW and MINI vehicles registered, an increase of 10 per cent over 2006.

The BMW brand accounted for 121,575 sales, an increase of five per cent compared to 2006 and the seventh successive year for record sales. MINI achieved 47,661 registrations, its best annual sales performance since the vehicle’s UK launch in July 2001, representing a 25 per cent increase over 2006.

No but it gives last years sales figures which is a good indication of recent years performance.

yep, but i'm try to find out how many BMW's are still on the roads in the UK. I am not able to work out how many they would have sold since 1980. That would not include imports.

I'd expect so - they appear to give personal details out to everyone on everything else!

Cats know your every thought.

But don't care.
