how rare is your car?

There is a great website called howmanyleft. You tap in your car details and it says how many are left on the roads in the UK.

I have just found out my first car, an old vauxhall Viva HC DeLuxe is as rare as hens teeth, just 23 left! I should have kept it... it could be worth millions, not.

My current car, a Jag, has 10,000 on the road

My first car was a 1966 HA Viva.... and even then other old Viva drivers would wave if you passed them.

I loved my Viva, even though it was a bag of crap. Metallic green with a black vinyl roof, 70's colours were garish!!!

Mine was that light blueish sort of colour...... similar to the colour all mobility vehicles were.

Haaaa yes it was a great car. I remember laying on the roof with friends sun bathing by the sea.... then sitting in the car pushing the dent out of the roof.... and it popped right out.

Someone ran into the back of it with their plastic bumpered car.... mine looked fine... they really knew how to make bumpers back then.

My car is unique due to her custom paint job, until others started to copy her all over the world!

it says 2 of mine licensed and 6 of mine on sorn. So a total of 8 in the country. Mine is licensed so there is only one other, but both yamaha xj900f on ebay are licensed, so maybe mine doesn't exist.

I have an Alfa Romeo 156 JTS. The only rare thing about my particular Alfa is that it runs perfectly (touch wood!)
