RENAULT · RENAULT SPIDER · Cars
As of 2025 Q4, 78 RENAULT SPIDERs remain registered in the UK — one of the rarest cars in Britain on today's roads. That's down from a peak of 80 in 2021 Q4 — only 98% of the high-water mark, a loss of about 2 cars. Unusually, the numbers are actually rising — up 2 (2.6%) over the past year, as imports and barn-finds rejoin the register faster than cars leave it. Tellingly, 83% are declared SORN — kept off the road in garages and barns rather than driven, the signature of a car being looked after rather than used up. In all, the RENAULT SPIDER is rarer than 62% of the 2,408 UK car models we track, putting it firmly in 2025's endangered class.
