1999 Geo Metro LSi review from North America

I replaced the clutch at 158,000 miles.

I replaced the timing belt at 158,000 miles.

I am replacing the muffler system now at a little over 200,000 miles.

This is a great little automobile for anyone that is commuting to and from work. I purchased the car from a friend that bought the car new. She put 103,000 miles on the car, she is a bank courier and bought the car for her job. I purchased the car from her for the same reason. I drive 200 miles one way to work, 400 round trip and I wanted a small vehicle that would get good gas mileage, plus I did not want to put high mileage on my new vehicle. I have not regretted the purchase as I have had very little trouble with it and have had to replace very little for a car with such high mileage. My friend did not have to replace anything the first 103,000 miles. I have total faith in the car, (I have to have faith I'm my car as the first 97 miles I travel is desolate without so much as a gas station, and no cell phone service as it is such a hilly area and an not get reception. The gas mileage is unbelievable. It cost me around $12.00 for gas for the 400 mile round trip (200 miles each way). As for comfort, it is not uncomfortable, however, it is not a vehicle made for comfort either, but it is rather a very cost efficient and dependable car, which in my opinion far outweighs any discomfort. It is also a car that is very easy to drive.
