HOW MANY MAZDA R SERIES ARE LEFT?

There are 4 MAZDA R SERIES left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 1 MAZDA R SERIES that are currently SORNED.

There are currently more MAZDA R SERIES, in total, than ever before. The number taxed topped out in 2025 Q2 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2021 Q4.

During 2016 Q2 the number of MAZDA R SERIES 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 MAZDA R SERIES has gained 2. Licensed models have increased by 2 and the SORNed total has fallen by 0.

The 5 year trend shows an overall increase of 1 MAZDA R SERIES models. Taxed models have grown by 1 and the SORNed total has fallen by 0.

80% of the surviving 5 MAZDA R SERIES in the UK are still on the road.
