HOW MANY YAMAHA YP 250 ARE LEFT?

There are 117 YAMAHA YP 250 left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 347 YAMAHA YP 250 that are currently SORNED.

The total number of YAMAHA YP 250 was highest during 2003 Q4 (800). The number taxed topped out in 2003 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2024 Q1.

Since the total peaked, some 336 (42%) YAMAHA YP 250 have been scrapped or exported.

During 2019 Q3 the number of YAMAHA YP 250 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 YP 250 has fallen by 153. Licensed models have fallen by 286 and the SORNed total has increased by 133.

The 5 year trend shows a total decline of 92 YAMAHA YP 250 models. Taxed models have declined by 120 and the SORNed total has increased by 28.

75% of the remaining 464 YAMAHA YP 250 in the UK are currently off the road.
