DAEWOO MUSSO Rare

As of 2025 Q4, 316 DAEWOO MUSSOs remain registered in the UK — a genuinely rare sight on today's roads. That's down from a peak of 947 in 2014 Q3 — only 33% of the high-water mark, a loss of about 631 cars. They're disappearing at roughly 31 a year (9.8% of what's left), a pace that would halve the survivors by around 2032 if it held — though in practice the last, most-cherished examples tend to linger far longer. Tellingly, 93% 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.

A constant-rate projection from the last 3 years. The last survivors tend to linger far longer than this — cherished cars don't vanish on a fixed date.
