Looking at a Typhoon?

Population figures cannot tell you whether one particular car is taxed, MOT-valid or safe to buy.

Check its registration free for the official tax, MOT and mileage record. If the car is still worth pursuing, the optional £9.99 full history check adds outstanding-finance, stolen and insurance write-off checks.

Is the Typhoon disappearing?

Licensed numbers peaked at 2,242 in 2014 Q3 and stand at 437 in 2026 Q1, down 81%. That is down 58% in the five years since 2021 Q1.

A falling population is worth knowing before you buy: it usually means fewer donor cars, fewer specialists and slower parts supply, and it is why a good example of a scarce model can hold its price while a neglected one is hard to sell at any price.

Fuel

DfT codes every vehicle in the Piaggio Typhoon generic-model group as petrol.

Before you buy

  • Budget for a shrinking fleet — Licensed numbers are down 81% from the 2014 Q3 peak of 2,242. Fewer cars on the road usually means fewer donor parts and fewer specialists.
  • Check the actual Typhoon — These figures describe the model group. Enter the registration for that vehicle's free MOT, tax and mileage record before you pay a deposit.
