Adding up every published Moto Guzzi model group: Licensed numbers peaked at 6,464 in 2025 Q3 and stand at 5,867 in 2026 Q1, down 9%. That is up 52% in the five years since 2021 Q1.

Before you buy
- Ask why it was off the road — Of the 9,390 Moto Guzzi vehicles still on the DVLA record, 1 in 3 is SORN (3,523 at 2026 Q1). A car that has been laid up needs a closer look at brakes, tyres and the MOT history.
- Check the actual Moto Guzzi — These figures describe the model group. Enter the registration for that vehicle's free MOT, tax and mileage record before you pay a deposit.

How to read these numbers
Licensed means taxed and legal to use on the road at the end of the quarter. SORN means the keeper has declared it off the road — it still exists, but it is not in use. A model group's total is the best available proxy for how many survive, and a shrinking one means fewer donor cars, fewer specialists and slower parts supply.
