MAZDA 1400 Ultra-rare
As of 2026 Q2, 7 MAZDA 1400s remain registered in the UK — one of the rarest cars in Britain on today's roads. That's down from a peak of 14 in 2014 Q3 — only 50% of the high-water mark, a loss of about 7 cars. They're disappearing at roughly 1 a year (19.8% 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 MAZDA 1400 is rarer than 81% of the 2,315 UK car models we track, putting it firmly in 2026's endangered class.
