1990 Geo Metro review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing really, bought it for a thousand bucks with a bad engine and 140,000 miles, but clean. Had a new engine from another Metro that I totaled at 70mph. I have driven it for 100,000 mi since the engine replacement. I've always used Mobil one 5W30 in both cars.
General comments?
I have beat the crap out of this car, you should see it. Wrecked and the underbody trashed from offroading here in Montana. Excellent snow car with studs and winter tires. I've never had to do anything except adjust the door handles and CHANGE THE OIL
USE A FRAM 3600 FILTER INSTEAD OF THE NORMAL ONE.
