LDV 200 SERIES Ultra-rare
As of 2025 Q4, 18 LDV 200 SERIESs remain registered in the UK — one of the rarest cars in Britain on today's roads. That's down from a peak of 55 in 2014 Q3 — only 33% of the high-water mark, a loss of about 37 cars. They're disappearing at roughly 2 a year (13.4% of what's left), a pace that would halve the survivors by around 2030 if it held — though in practice the last, most-cherished examples tend to linger far longer. In all, the LDV 200 SERIES is rarer than 75% of the 2,408 UK car models we track, putting it firmly in 2025's endangered class.
