HONDA S800 Ultra-rare
As of 2025 Q4, 94 HONDA S800s remain registered in the UK — one of the rarest cars in Britain on today's roads. Numbers are at their highest recorded level since the model first appeared in our data in 2014 Q3. Unusually, the numbers are actually rising — up 3 (3.3%) over the past year, as imports and barn-finds rejoin the register faster than cars leave it. In all, the HONDA S800 is rarer than 60% of the 2,408 UK car models we track, putting it firmly in 2025's endangered class.

The S800 is a sports car from Honda. Introduced at the 1965 Tokyo Motor Show, the S800 replaced the successful Honda S600 as the company's image car. With a redline of 8,500 rpm, it is one of the highest-revving sports cars produced for street use. The S800 competed with the Austin-Healey Sprite, MG Midget, Triumph Spitfire, Datsun Fairlady, and Fiat 850 Spider.
