Genuinely rare — only 7 left on UK roads.

Rarer than 81% of the 2,408 UK car models we track.

Disappearing at about 0 a year (4.0% of survivors). At that pace roughly 6 would remain in 5 years, and half the current fleet is gone by around ~2042.

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.

About the 282

The Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution, popularly referred to as the "Evo", is a sports sedan and rally car based on the Lancer that was manufactured by Japanese manufacturer Mitsubishi Motors from 1992 until 2016. There have been ten official versions to date, and the designation of each model is most commonly a Roman numeral. All generations use two-litre intercooled turbo inline four-cylinder engines and all-wheel drive systems. The Lancer was originally intended only for Japanese markets, but demand on the "grey import" market led the Evolution series to be offered through Ralliart dealer networks...
