1993 Geo Metro XFI review from North America
"I love it"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I have had only one repair within the first 5 years (70K) :throttle position sensor needed to be replaced (150$ +labor).
Otherwise only maintenance stuff (tires, battery replacement, timing belt, muffler/exhaust if you live in snow country)
Now after 10 years and 130K miles the front wheel ball joints are worn out and I will part with the car to get a new Geo Metro!
General comments?
Most economical, fuel-efficient non-hybrid car available in the US, easy to park in the smallest spots.
