1992 Geo Metro 4 door review from North America
"The perfect people's car!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Water pump.
Clutch.
I replaced parts & I am only a housewife.
Seats and paint are like new.
Burns no oil.
Still goes 85 (easily).
Ditto for the Chevy sprint (same car as the Geo).
General comments?
Read all survey comments and only saw 2 that really hated Geos (they must have been abused as children).
Bought both cars for economy and they both got 50 miles per gallon (exaggeration, wife gets 62 mpg when driving 55 mph alone in car).
We have been driving them for 13 years and loved both of them. Have driven other vehicles too but only for a little while because only the Geo Metro gives us reliability, economy, power, fun, accessability, utility (I haul 2x4's sometimes), maneuverability, etc, etc, and economy.
