FIAT PANDA Common

As of 2026 Q1, 87,341 FIAT PANDAs remain registered in the UK — still a familiar sight on today's roads. That's down from a peak of 108,684 in 2017 Q4 — only 80% of the high-water mark, a loss of about 21,343 cars. They're disappearing at roughly 4,146 a year (4.7% of what's left), a pace that would halve the survivors by around 2040 if it held — though in practice the last, most-cherished examples tend to linger far longer.
