1995 Rover - Austin Metro Rio review from UK and Ireland
"A good, reliable, cheap runabout"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
ECU went wrong, luckily covered under warranty.
The driver's door window came off it's winders so you couldn't wind it up.
Plastic bumpers look very faded.
General comments?
Not recommended for motorway driving, but excellent around the town.
Quite nippy for a 1.1, good handling, parts and servicing are cheap.
