That is a very fine looking Metro! Used to have a GTa and I still stand by the fact that it was one of the best cars I've had (and I've had a lot of cars!) any plans for the engine, or is it staying stock?

Its a great little car! Engine plans are either a B16a turbo, or a 1.3 K11 micra engine conversion, which ever comes up cheapest at the time lol

I'm feeling a ton of love for early Metro's right now...
I do hope that the time is right to save them now, there really cannot be that many left...?!?!?!

There's still loads about, but prices are going up! There's 1 near identical to mine on ebay for £999! You used to get them for £50-60 about 10years ago! I have a contact though in Malta that can supply rust free mint examples for pretty cheap, with a shipping fee of 350euros!

It was abit of dressing gown lol and a big hefty chunk of seam sealer! It looked pretty good but knew it needed replacing, only when I knocked it the full extent of the rust was revealed! No other rust on it now, due a full respray soon too, hopefully have the engine replaced before that though!

Absolutely love it.....like most I grew up surrounded by them....Grandad and neighbour had one and I learned to drive in one too, but can't remember the last time I saw one that age!. It looks pukka with that stance too, nice one mate:-)
