Used to have an MG Metro back in the day and it used to fly up Winnats Pass in the snow, no problem.

At the bottom of my profiles about me part, the engine is great, no rust under it, and brand new leather interior, but, the paint is destroyed and every panel, even the roof is badly dented, stop in a month or so its being restored, at the moment its not to my taste at all outside

So, Mini owners, you thought your cars were bad in crash tests, here is the 97 metro, with its new impact bars and airbag...which mine doesnt have: https://www.bing.com/videos/search?q=rover+metro+metro+1.1+crash+test&FORM=HDRSC3#view=detail&mid=39ECC7F8B9AC6F639C0139ECC7F8B9AC6F639C01

That's why the car was put out of production. They spent a fortune on that facelift, sent it to Ncap and it scored the lowest result ever recorded. Minis are much more crash worthy. Even a Tata Nano is better in a crash than a Metro!

wow and a tata nano isn't legal is most places cause it is so unsafe.

It is a tad scary to be honest XD you see how bad the 100 faired, mine is the earlier metro without air bag, side impact bars, strengthening etc.
