RENAULT · RENAULT GTA · Cars
As of 2026 Q1, 290 RENAULT GTAs remain registered in the UK — a genuinely rare sight on today's roads. That's down from a peak of 296 in 2024 Q3 — only 98% of the high-water mark, a loss of about 6 cars. Numbers have held broadly steady over recent years rather than falling away — often the mark of a model that owners deliberately preserve. Tellingly, 84% are declared SORN — kept off the road in garages and barns rather than driven, the signature of a car being looked after rather than used up.
Rare — fewer than 1,000 remain (290 in the latest data).
Rarer than 49% of the 2,429 UK car models we track.
The Renault Alpine GTA and the succeeding A610 is a sports coupé automobile produced by the Renault-owned French manufacturer Alpine between late 1984 and 1995. The GTA name was an internal code name (although it was used as a model name in the British market); in Europe it was sold as the Alpine V6 GT or V6 Turbo. It replaced the slow-selling Alpine A310, with which it shared many features, including the layout and engine. The GTA was replaced by the A610 in 1991.
As of 2026 Q1, 290 RENAULT GTA were still registered in the UK — 46 licensed and on the road, plus 244 declared SORN (off-road). The figures come from official DVLA vehicle licensing data.
