HOW MANY SP MOTO ARE LEFT?

There are 4 SP MOTO left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 34 SP MOTO that are currently SORNED.

The total number of SP MOTO was highest during 2017 Q3 (67). The number taxed topped out in 2017 Q3 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2025 Q1.

Since the total peaked, some 29 (43%) SP MOTO have been scrapped or exported.

During 2019 Q2 the number of SP MOTO 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 SP MOTO has gained 15. Licensed models have fallen by 17 and the SORNed total has increased by 32.

The 5 year trend shows a total decline of 10 SP MOTO models. Taxed models have declined by 18 and the SORNed total has increased by 8.

89% of the remaining 38 SP MOTO in the UK are currently off the road.
