HOW MANY BMW R1100RS ARE LEFT?

There are 208 BMW R1100RS left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 515 BMW R1100RS that are currently SORNED.

The total number of BMW R1100RS was highest during 2007 Q4 (968). The number taxed topped out in 2001 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2024 Q4.

Since the total peaked, some 245 (25%) BMW R1100RS have been scrapped or exported.

During 2016 Q4 the number of BMW R1100RS 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 R1100RS has fallen by 77. Licensed models have fallen by 284 and the SORNed total has increased by 207.

The 5 year trend shows a total decline of 43 BMW R1100RS models. Taxed models have declined by 102 and the SORNed total has increased by 59.

71% of the remaining 723 BMW R1100RS in the UK are currently off the road.
