Down pipe (for the exhaust) has disconnected 4 times.
Both seat mechanisms have broken, rear passengers cannot get into the car.
Window winder has become jammed.
Interior lining has become unstuck.
This car is brilliantly simple, most faults can be fixed with a little common sense.
Go-cart handling that is a blast around the city.
Huge amounts of space for such a small car, rear seats fold down into foot well to achieve van like qualities.
Biggest downfall is rust, I had a little scratch on one wing; the entire section needs to be replaced as the rust has spread.
Very loud engine, this engine was actually designed in the 1950's! This does however reduce repair costs.
Exterior looks are cute and cheeky, but they won't give you any credibility.
Surprisingly nippy when you are solo, quick off the mark, add any more passengers and the performance falls accordingly.
So, so cheap to run this will barely make any difference to your bank balance unless you are an 18 year old male like me.
Hmm, Downpipe disconnected 4 times! This might be down to driving style! The engine mountings will push back onto the downpipe so if you make a habit of putting your foot flat to the floor and accelerating away like that then you're quite likely to have it disconnect :)
I am trying to find Tires for me Metro City X without much luck, as the the tires I am looking for are metric the prices are horribly expensive, especially for a 17y old. Can anyone point me in the the right direction??
Many thanks!!!
Ps so far i have had none of the failures which you have noted except for the mechanisam on the drivers side seat which i solved with a bit of wire through the metal hoop, crude but it works :D
