1983 Rover - Austin Metro L review from UK and Ireland
"Very cheap and affordable, quiet interior and doesn't rattle like other models"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
It would not start on cold mornings. Everything else is just perfect!
General comments?
Excellent running costs.
Excellent reliability.
Great performance, very very quick and fast even though its engine size is small. Can cope with a motorway very easily.
Very spacious in the back and in the front. I am not joking but it is far more spacious than a Mercedes 190! Extremely quiet inside but a little bit noisy outside.
OVERALL = 9/10
