1992 Geo Metro Sedan review from North America
"Today's VW Bug. A great value"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The darn thing just keeps running. I've had to change the front wheel bearings, put new brake pads on it.
General comments?
In the used car market it is a super value. I have three of them right now, a 92 and two 91's and they all run good. One of the 91's has 240,000 but I've done an engine rebuild on it, my daughter drove the heck out of it for 5 years. If these had been around in the 50's and 60's VW would not have sold very many Bugs. This car has a heater and AC that works.
