ALFA ROMEO 4C Rare

As of 2026 Q1, 316 ALFA ROMEO 4Cs remain registered in the UK — a genuinely rare sight on today's roads. That's down from a peak of 331 in 2018 Q3 — only 95% of the high-water mark, a loss of about 15 cars. Unusually, the numbers are actually rising — up 7 (2.3%) over the past year, as imports and barn-finds rejoin the register faster than cars leave it.

About the 4C

The Alfa Romeo 4C (Type 960) is a two-seat sports car which was manufactured by Maserati and marketed by Alfa Romeo from 2013 until 2020. It was initially made only as a two-door coupé, with a two-door roadster version added in 2015. It has a rear mid-engine, rear-wheel-drive layout, with the 4C name referring to its straight-four engine. The 4C was designed by Marco Tencone and Lorenzo Ramaciotti at Centro Stile Alfa Romeo and was the first car sold in the United States by the Italian brand since 1995.
