HOW MANY BMW R100GS ARE LEFT?

There are 122 BMW R100GS left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 262 BMW R100GS that are currently SORNED.

The total number of BMW R100GS was highest during 2022 Q4 (391). The number taxed topped out in 1995 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2025 Q1.

Since the total peaked, some 7 (2%) BMW R100GS have been scrapped or exported.

During 2013 Q4 the number of BMW R100GS that were off the road (SORN) exceeded the number that were licensed for the first time. This could indicate the owners are reluctant to sell or scrap their car as they view them as a potential future classic.

In the last 10 years the total number of BMW R100GS has gained 30. Licensed models have fallen by 79 and the SORNed total has increased by 109.

The 5 year trend shows an overall increase of 17 BMW R100GS models. Taxed models have declined by 29 and the SORNed total has increased by 46.

68% of the remaining 384 BMW R100GS in the UK are currently off the road.
