SUZUKI LJ Ultra-rare

As of 2026 Q2, 3 SUZUKI LJs remain registered in the UK — one of the rarest cars in Britain on today's roads. Numbers are at their highest recorded level since the model first appeared in our data in 2014 Q3. 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 SUZUKI LJ is rarer than 87% of the 2,315 UK car models we track, putting it firmly in 2026's endangered class.
