HOW MANY ZNEN ZN 50 ARE LEFT?

There are 122 ZNEN ZN 50 left on the road in the UK (i.e. with valid road tax). There are a further 616 ZNEN ZN 50 that are currently SORNED.

The total number of ZNEN ZN 50 was highest during 2019 Q2 (1,066). The number taxed topped out in 2019 Q2 and the total SORNed was at its maximum during 2025 Q2.

Since the total peaked, some 328 (31%) ZNEN ZN 50 have been scrapped or exported.

During 2021 Q3 the number of ZNEN ZN 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 ZNEN ZN 50 has gained 242. Licensed models have fallen by 264 and the SORNed total has increased by 506.

The 5 year trend shows a total decline of 247 ZNEN ZN 50 models. Taxed models have declined by 465 and the SORNed total has increased by 218.

83% of the remaining 738 ZNEN ZN 50 in the UK are currently off the road.
