HOW MANY YAMAHA CW 50 ARE LEFT?

There are 10 YAMAHA CW 50 left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 52 YAMAHA CW 50 that are currently SORNED.

The total number of YAMAHA CW 50 was highest during 1999 Q4 (137). The number taxed topped out in 1999 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2024 Q4.

Since the total peaked, some 75 (55%) YAMAHA CW 50 have been scrapped or exported.

During 2014 Q2 the number of YAMAHA CW 50 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 YAMAHA CW 50 has gained 5. Licensed models have fallen by 10 and the SORNed total has increased by 15.

The 5 year trend shows an overall increase of 3 YAMAHA CW 50 models. Taxed models have declined by 1 and the SORNed total has increased by 4.

84% of the remaining 62 YAMAHA CW 50 in the UK are currently off the road.
