Drivers side gas suspension unit broke leaving me stranded.
Radiator corroded and had to be replaced.
A good first car that transported me to and from college. Only ever broke down twice in the year I had it, but not too expensive to fix.
The bodywork is very thin and the doors do have a tendency to buckle. Rust on the rear arches also is a characteristic.
I would however recommend this car highly to first time buyers on a budget. They can be picked up for very little these days and insurance is a bargain.
Not the cheapest car on petrol (for a 1.1 l).
I had a Rover Metro and everything went wrong with it. I was never so glad to see it go. Read my review never buy one.
