SEAT MII Common
As of 2026 Q1, 18,443 SEAT MIIs remain registered in the UK — still a familiar sight on today's roads. That's down from a peak of 19,014 in 2021 Q4 — only 97% of the high-water mark, a loss of about 571 cars. Numbers have held broadly steady over recent years rather than falling away — often the mark of a model that owners deliberately preserve.

About the MII
The Volkswagen Up (stylized as Volkswagen up!) is a city car which was produced by the Volkswagen Group from 2011 to 2023. It is part of the New Small Family (NSF) series of models, alongside the SEAT Mii and Škoda Citigo which are rebadged versions of the Up, with slightly different front and rear fascias. Production began in December 2011 at the Volkswagen Plant in Bratislava, Slovakia, with Volkswagen do Brasil making the model in Taubaté from February 2014 until 2021. The SEAT and Škoda versions were also manufactured in the Bratislava factory, before being withdrawn from sale in 2021 and 2020...
