VAUXHALL VX Rare

As of 2026 Q1, 992 VAUXHALL VXs remain registered in the UK — a genuinely rare sight on today's roads. That's down from a peak of 997 in 2014 Q3 — only 99% of the high-water mark, a loss of about 5 cars. Unusually, the numbers are actually rising — up 14 (1.4%) over the past year, as imports and barn-finds rejoin the register faster than cars leave it. Tellingly, 63% 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.

The last Victor, the Victor FE, was also manufactured under licence by Hindustan Motors in India as the Hindustan Contessa, during the 1980s and early 2000s, with an Isuzu engine.
