CITROEN GS Ultra-rare
As of 2025 Q4, 77 CITROEN GSs remain registered in the UK — one of the rarest cars in Britain on today's roads. That's down from a peak of 81 in 2019 Q3 — only 95% of the high-water mark, a loss of about 4 cars. Unusually, the numbers are actually rising — up 1 (1.3%) over the past year, as imports and barn-finds rejoin the register faster than cars leave it. In all, the CITROEN GS is rarer than 62% of the 2,408 UK car models we track, putting it firmly in 2025's endangered class.
