NISSAN GT-R Uncommon

As of 2026 Q2, 2,827 NISSAN GT-Rs remain registered in the UK — an increasingly uncommon sight on today's roads. That's down from a peak of 2,893 in 2021 Q3 — only 98% of the high-water mark, a loss of about 66 cars. Unusually, the numbers are actually rising — up 48 (1.7%) over the past year, as imports and barn-finds rejoin the register faster than cars leave it.
