Dodge Journey 2008-10

Aston Martin Cygnet

2011-13 How many left? 144 Allegedly dreamed up on the golf course. A weird way into Aston ownership.

Chevrolet Volt 2013-15

How many left? 119 Chevy’s withdrawal didn’t help, but it was selling slowly anyway despite its brilliance. Just too dear. How many left? 2181 In a chunky kind of way it was quite good-looking, which matched its roughedged manners. Another failed Dodge. How many left? 2166 Just over 2000 left and the numbers are falling fast. Excellent. How many left? 878 Made the troubled 1980s original look good.

Cadillac STS 2009-10

How many left? 25 GM tooled these for right-hand drive – and sold just 45. Ouch. How many left? Unknown A US budget rental fleet special that made you pleased to get back in your own car.

It was outstanding at almost nothing. How many left? 1795 Launched just as the people carrier segment’s implosion gathered force. How many left? 2243 Curious niche roadster developed by Renault Sport. Euthanised during the Renault UK range cull of late 2011. 2007-09 How many left? 62 Even Vauxhall insiders thought this relabelled US import was rubbish.
