1994 Geo Metro Xfi review from North America
"A dynasty of a car for a little bitty price!!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The only things that have been replaced on this car are the alternator and battery. I have gone through a couple sets of tires, but I live where there is only dirt roads. The alternator went out at about 75000 miles. I have replaced the battery twice due to leaving the lights on and just draining it too many times.
The radio went out on me at about 100000 miles. Since then I have replaced the head unit and speakers. sounds Great!
General comments?
This car is extremely dependable. I have never had anything so reliable.
The car has had three teenagers learn to drive a manual transmission and the clutch is still working.
Driving it in the summer is somewhat undesirable due to not having air conditioning.
I will buy my kids a Geo when they are old enough.
Not the most comfortable car in the world, but great gas saver. 56 miles per gallon.
