VAUXHALL BELMONT Ultra-rare
As of 2026 Q1, 89 VAUXHALL BELMONTs remain registered in the UK — one of the rarest cars in Britain on today's roads. That's down from a peak of 110 in 2014 Q3 — only 81% of the high-water mark, a loss of about 21 cars. Unusually, the numbers are actually rising — up 1 (1.1%) over the past year, as imports and barn-finds rejoin the register faster than cars leave it.

In all, the VAUXHALL BELMONT is rarer than 61% of the 2,429 UK car models we track, putting it firmly in 2026's endangered class.
