1990 Geo Metro x review from North America
"If they still made them, I'd own one."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Front bearings blew out, timing belt stripped out at 155000 miles. Clutch was replaced at 185000.
General comments?
Fantastic car, super reliable, easy to maintain, basic, but that's what I wanted. Never had any engine problems. No A/C, great heat.
