HONDA SH50 Ultra-rare

They're disappearing at roughly 0 a year (11.2% of what's left), a pace that would halve the survivors by around 2031 if it held — though in practice the last, most-cherished examples tend to linger far longer. In all, the HONDA SH50 is rarer than 90% of the 2,408 UK car models we track, putting it firmly in 2025's endangered class.
