NISSAN PRIMASTAR Rare
As of 2026 Q2, 240 NISSAN PRIMASTARs remain registered in the UK — a genuinely rare sight on today's roads. That's down from a peak of 336 in 2014 Q3 — only 71% of the high-water mark, a loss of about 96 cars. Numbers have held broadly steady over recent years rather than falling away — often the mark of a model that owners deliberately preserve. In all, the NISSAN PRIMASTAR is rarer than 51% of the 2,315 UK car models we track.
