OPEL MONZA Rare
As of 2026 Q1, 292 OPEL MONZAs remain registered in the UK — a genuinely rare sight on today's roads. That's down from a peak of 293 in 2024 Q3 — only 100% of the high-water mark, a loss of about 1 cars. Unusually, the numbers are actually rising — up 5 (1.7%) over the past year, as imports and barn-finds rejoin the register faster than cars leave it. Tellingly, 78% are declared SORN — kept off the road in garages and barns rather than driven, the signature of a car being looked after rather than used up.
