1996 Geo Metro LX review from North America
"Geo is a great little car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Not a single thing.
General comments?
For anyone who is looking for a cheap little reliable car GET ONE. I have had mine 3 years and I am fairly abusive with it and I have never had a single problem.
I work road construction out of town, so I drive about 1200 miles a week (not to mention around a crusher pit) and this is the first car I have had that has had no problems at all.
It is a little slower, but makes up for it at the pump. I drive mine real hard and I still get 45 miles to the gallon.
