1992 Rover - Austin Metro GTi 16v review from UK and Ireland
"Great fun on a budget"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Rear brake calipers leaking.
Back-box on the exhaust - baffles have gone..
General comments?
Startling performance.
Great handling, even in the wet.
Comfy front seats.
The look on the face of the driver behind you - worth a million quid.
Rear arches prone to rust bubbles.
