1982 Rover - Austin Metro MG review from UK and Ireland
"Ideal compromise between speed and economy"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Brakes pulled badly.
General comments?
Decent little car, with far more guts than the 1.0 version.
Very few problems, sold it reluctantly for a bigger car - biggest mistake of my life!
