HONDA SH50 Ultra-rare

As of 2026 Q1, 2 HONDA SH50s remain registered in the UK — one of the rarest cars in Britain on today's roads. That's down from a peak of 4 in 2014 Q4 — only 50% of the high-water mark, a loss of about 2 cars. They're disappearing at roughly 0 a year (19.6% of what's left), a pace that would halve the survivors by around 2029 if it held — though in practice the last, most-cherished examples tend to linger far longer. In all, the HONDA SH50 is rarer than 90% of the 2,429 UK car models we track, putting it firmly in 2026's endangered class.
