MAZDA CX-7 Uncommon

As of 2026 Q1, 1,237 MAZDA CX-7s remain registered in the UK — an increasingly uncommon sight on today's roads. That's down from a peak of 2,984 in 2014 Q3 — only 41% of the high-water mark, a loss of about 1,747 cars. They're disappearing at roughly 279 a year (22.5% 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.
