...judging by the classifieds.

Browsing the classifieds, as you do, some cars that arent long on the market seem to have a large number of listings.

Alfa Mito:

Porsche Panamera:

You also dont see many on the road.

Any others that I've missed?

edited to say not based on the PH classifieds but based on (lack of) sightings...

those small mercedes softroaders (can you even buy them in UK??!!) - GLK(??)
those small audi softroaders - Q3(??)
ford kugas (THEY'RE FORDS FOR CRYING OUT LOUD!)
ford ka mk2 (see tonnes of curvy fiestas but not kas)
i agree with the mito. it's no mini or 500 in sales (by the looks of things)

I agree with the Ford Ka, I could probably count on one hand the number I've seen. With the 500 adopting the ford suspension settings I'd say that's not going to change any time soon.

I've also only ever seen one BMW 5 Series GT. Thank God.

Reckon I see fair number of Mito's honest. And as for the Panamera, it's not really the type or price of car I'd expect to see many of. But that said working in central London I've seen more than I thought I would of.

Cars I don't see many of, Jaguar XK's (8's or R's), ever since the current shape was launched. See very few of them these days.

Nissan 370z's. Fab cars but I've seen 1 so far on the roads.

Lotus Evora, not seen 1 at all. Lotus Europa (new one), only ever seen 2 of them.
