HOW MANY MZ 1000 ARE LEFT?

There are 1 MZ 1000 left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 14 MZ 1000 that are currently SORNED.

The total number of MZ 1000 was highest during 2008 Q4 (23). The number taxed topped out in 2008 Q3 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2025 Q1.

Since the total peaked, some 8 (35%) MZ 1000 have been scrapped or exported.

During 2015 Q1 the number of MZ 1000 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 MZ 1000 has gained 2. Licensed models have fallen by 5 and the SORNed total has increased by 7.

The 5 year trend shows a total decline of 1 MZ 1000 models. Taxed models have declined by 2 and the SORNed total has increased by 1.

93% of the remaining 15 MZ 1000 in the UK are currently off the road.
