AUSTIN A35 Uncommon
As of 2026 Q2, 2,142 AUSTIN A35s remain registered in the UK — an increasingly uncommon sight on today's roads. Numbers are at their highest recorded level since the model first appeared in our data in 2014 Q3. Unusually, the numbers are actually rising — up 18 (0.8%) over the past year, as imports and barn-finds rejoin the register faster than cars leave it. Tellingly, 41% are declared SORN — kept off the road in garages and barns rather than driven, the signature of a car being looked after rather than used up.
