1990 Geo Metro review from North America
"A whole lot of fun!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I had a bit of trouble with the exhaust system. Don't really know why. I had to replace the catalytic converter 3 times! I also had a problem with the heater core which started leaking inside the passenger compartment ruining the carpet!
General comments?
I really had a good time with this car! I've taken it everywhere... mountains, desert, ocean! It really responds well to all kinds of driving environments!
Fuel consumption is superb, which makes it excellent for long road trips.
A little small inside, although, the large windows give it a bigger, more spacious feel!
