1996 Geo Metro review from North America
"Great great great!!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Exhaust valve burned out, due to no maintenance by previous ouwner.
Rear struts are wore out.
General comments?
Great car, had many things to fix when I bought it. but due to the knuckle dragger that owned it, what can you expect. only bummer is that the EGR system must be cleaned out on a regular basis, otherwise the exhaust valves burn out.
But the car is a very very easy to work on, built very good... parts are cheap... if they still sold them in the u.s.a., I would buy a new one in a second!!!
