Is the Tamoretti fleet shrinking?
Adding up every published Tamoretti model group: Licensed numbers peaked at 246 in 2014 Q3 and stand at 15 in 2026 Q1, down 94%. That is down 72% in the five years since 2021 Q1.
Before you buy
- Budget for a shrinking fleet — Licensed numbers are down 94% from the 2014 Q3 peak of 246. Fewer cars on the road usually means fewer donor parts and fewer specialists.
- Check the actual Tamoretti — 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.
