HOW MANY YAMAHA YQ 100 ARE LEFT?

There are 35 YAMAHA YQ 100 left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 462 YAMAHA YQ 100 that are currently SORNED.

The total number of YAMAHA YQ 100 was highest during 2004 Q4 (2,069). The number taxed topped out in 2004 Q4 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2024 Q1.

Since the total peaked, some 1,572 (76%) YAMAHA YQ 100 have been scrapped or exported.

During 2014 Q1 the number of YAMAHA YQ 100 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 YQ 100 has fallen by 194. Licensed models have fallen by 226 and the SORNed total has increased by 32.

The 5 year trend shows a total decline of 54 YAMAHA YQ 100 models. Taxed models have declined by 43 and the SORNed total has fallen by 11.

93% of the remaining 497 YAMAHA YQ 100 in the UK are currently off the road.
