HONDA INSIGHT Uncommon
As of 2026 Q1, 8,472 HONDA INSIGHTs remain registered in the UK — an increasingly uncommon sight on today's roads. That's down from a peak of 9,590 in 2014 Q3 — only 88% of the high-water mark, a loss of about 1,118 cars. They're disappearing at roughly 195 a year (2.3% of what's left), a pace that would halve the survivors by around 2056 if it held — though in practice the last, most-cherished examples tend to linger far longer.
