HOW MANY SUZUKI GS 500 EW ARE LEFT?

There are 56 SUZUKI GS 500 EW left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 284 SUZUKI GS 500 EW that are currently SORNED.

The total number of SUZUKI GS 500 EW was highest during 1998 Q4 (682). The number taxed topped out in 1998 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2021 Q4.

Since the total peaked, some 342 (50%) SUZUKI GS 500 EW have been scrapped or exported.

During 2014 Q4 the number of SUZUKI GS 500 EW 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 SUZUKI GS 500 EW has fallen by 73. Licensed models have fallen by 142 and the SORNed total has increased by 69.

The 5 year trend shows a total decline of 46 SUZUKI GS 500 EW models. Taxed models have declined by 24 and the SORNed total has fallen by 22.

84% of the remaining 340 SUZUKI GS 500 EW in the UK are currently off the road.
