FIAT · FIAT 1100 · Cars
As of 2026 Q1, 21 FIAT 1100s remain registered in the UK — one of the rarest cars in Britain on today's roads. That's down from a peak of 22 in 2021 Q1 — only 95% of the high-water mark, a loss of about 1 cars. Numbers have held broadly steady over recent years rather than falling away — often the mark of a model that owners deliberately preserve. In all, the FIAT 1100 is rarer than 75% of the 2,429 UK car models we track, putting it firmly in 2026's endangered class.

The Fiat 1100 is a small family car produced from 1953 until 1969 by the Italian manufacturer Fiat. It was an all-new unibody replacement for the Fiat 1100 E, which descended from the pre-war, body-on-frame Fiat 508 C Balilla 1100. The 1100 was changed steadily and gradually until being replaced by the new Fiat 128 in 1969. There were also a series of light commercial versions of the 1100 built, with later models called the Fiat 1100T, which remained in production until 1971. The Fiat 1100 D also found a long life in India, where Premier Automobiles continued to build the car until the end of 2000.
As of 2026 Q1, 21 FIAT 1100 were still registered in the UK — 16 licensed and on the road, plus 5 declared SORN (off-road). The figures come from official DVLA vehicle licensing data.
