DAIHATSU MIRA Ultra-rare

As of 2025 Q4, 49 DAIHATSU MIRAs remain registered in the UK — one of the rarest cars in Britain on today's roads. That's down from a peak of 51 in 2014 Q3 — only 96% of the high-water mark, a loss of about 2 cars. Unusually, the numbers are actually rising — up 3 (6.5%) over the past year, as imports and barn-finds rejoin the register faster than cars leave it. In all, the DAIHATSU MIRA is rarer than 66% of the 2,408 UK car models we track, putting it firmly in 2025's endangered class.
