ONE YEAR ON SALE
Chevrolet Epica 2008-09
How many left? 414 Sorry, but only these words will do: epic fail. You’ve likely forgotten that it’s a very tedious family saloon.
Nissan Cube 2010
How many left? 1064 Looked great on Japan’s city streets, but somewhere between weird and foolish on Britain’s.
Chevrolet Trax 2013-14
How many left? 1670 Crossover’s name and semi-digital dashboard were interesting, but it was killed by Chevy’s European withdrawal.
Renault Fluence EV 2012-13
How many left? 75 Renault sold only 79 before pulling the plug (sorry) on this pricey, short-range electric saloon.
Honda Legend 2006-07
How many left? 1083 This car ought really to be a legend, because it offered optional kit such as automatic, self-steering lane-keeping (an industry first), forward collision mitigation and a pyrotechnic bonnet as long as a decade ago. Active front-lighting, Bluetooth and a rear-view camera also appeared on an amazing roster of kit. Less impressive, surprisingly, was the 3.5 V6 petrol (low-rev lethargy slowed it), but what really did for this technical marvel was the lack of a diesel engine in the range.
Renault Koleos 2008-09
How many left? 2615 It takes an effort to misshit the SUV boom, but Renault aced it with this Samsung makeover.
Saab 9-5 2010-11
How many left? 26,278 Cut off in its prime, when Saab’s woefully underfinanced, over-ambitious new owners went bust.
Subaru B9 Tribeca
2006-07 How many left? Unknown With a snout even odder than its name, this SUV disappeared as quickly as a rallying Impreza WRX.
Suzuki Kizashi 2012-13
How many left? 332 Four-wheel drive, a 2.4-litre petrol, automatic, 191g/km and no diesel mean low sales.
