Superb find... ADO88 as it was known while it was been designed and developed... BL started on the design of this car in 1974 and it went on sale in 1980 ..It was originally intended as the replacement for the Austin Mini.. However, the mini outlived this car. Lovely A series engine... Very easy to work on and do DIY servicing.. Very nice car.
we had this exact car the city X four-door and we went everywhere in it, we had a young family at the time, 4 of we went camping in it every other weekend to the lakes, long driving holidays 4 - 6 weeks at a time in summer, it was fast, great MPG, and never broke down ever in the two years we had it and when we sold it the new owner lived near us and he kept it for many years and loved the car as well,
I've always had a soft spot for the Austin Metro. I'm happy that they have gained classic status
The Metro was a great little spacious family car.
My mother owned an automatic and she loved it. It was reliable as well.
