"Seriously cheap motoring"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Nothing has gone wrong other than the rear brakes which needed a new set of shoes due to normal wear.

The material of the sun visors has rotted with age.

General comments?

An excellent car which is 100% reliable.

Apart from the rear brake shoes, I have not spent any money on repairs or maintenance, and it passes MOTs with flying colours. Three years motoring for £500, not a bad deal.

Don't buy a Rover Metro, as they are prone to overheating, lose power, water pipes exploded, handbrake packed up, need lots of friends to push you around, took 8 friends pushing and me in first gear to drive up a hill!!! Really embarassing!!!

Would I buy another... NO!!!

Pete.
