Lynk & Co doesn’t sell any cars in the UK and doesn’t plan to enter the UK market at the moment. Meanwhile the Mitsubishi Outlander (alongside the L200) has just recently gone on sale in the UK as in around June 2026 Mitsubishi returned to the UK market after leaving in 2021, but I’m yet to see a UK spec and UK registered 4th gen Outlander. Everywhere else in Europe else it’s been available since around 2021.

Second one within a few weeks, this one is just a regular plate unlike the last one which was personalized.

The Rickman Ranger was a kit car made by Rickman who were a small independent motorcycle frame manufacturer, based in Hampshire, UK. Over a thousand Rangers were built.

Because this is a kit car, it carries a Q plate instead of an age regular plates.

That google maps error isn’t that uncommon, I’ve seen street names appear in different languages many times before, including in Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Korean , Thai, Hindi or some similar south Asian language and in Russian / other Cyrillic languages it happens for some reason.

Very cool little Japanese Kei van being used as a mini camper, the Scrum is a rebadged Suzuki Carry / Every.

First registered in September 2008, imported in March 2023

BMW: first registered in June 2014, imported into UK in March 2025. The 523D was only available in Japan alongside the 523i, to my knowledge it’s pretty much identical to a 520D everywhere else, same with the 523i being a 520i everywhere else.

VW: first registered in December 2013, imported in September 2025. Didn’t even notice it was a Japanese import, only noticed it was JDM later because of the small sticker near the rear windshield that says imported by VW Japan, and to my knowledge all Japanese spec VW have that when new.

My first DK motorbike

Exactly an hour after finally finding and photographing a Cypriot plate on car, I managed to find one on a motorbike too. Cyprus is very rare in the UK and a motorbike plate too is extremely rare

Finally found Cyprus, I’ve seen one back in 2018/19, and funny enough it was on the same street that I used to live on then pretty much right outside my house, I wasn’t into plate spotting that much then so only took a bad photo which is long gone,the car was then reregistered on UK plates. I’ve seen a second one , a commercial plate, last year right outside my work from the window but couldn’t photograph it as I was working and it drove past quickly.

Spotted between November 2025 and August 2026.

( forgot to include this one in my last post)

Only 130 Vauxhall Bravas are left on the UK roads, it’s a rebadged Isuzu which was sold under so many different names including the Isuzu Rodeo, Pickup, Chevy Luv, Holden Rodeo, Opel Campo and Bedford Brava.

Don’t know now many Clio of this generation are left, but certainly not many, as they’re pretty rare to see. This one is off the Road since August 2019 when the MOT expired.

Bedford Rascal not sure how many are left on the UK roads as of early 2026, and I’m guessing most are campers like this one. It was a rebadged Suzuki Carry kei van that made in the UK, in 1990 it became badged as the Vauxhall Rascal as the Bedford brand was retired.

Spotted between February and August 2026, Serbian registered cars and vans are very rare in the UK, trucks are more common.

The GLK was never made in RHD so never sold in the UK.

Was never sold in the UK, probably the only in the UK currently, they were only sold in North America and I know they’re very rare even back in the US.

Was manufactured in 1991 and imported into the UK in December 1998
