A Daf 340 for a retro metro, now with Vauxhallage

I'm normally all for the swaps but I know how much you dislike being laughed at for driving shit cars so I imagine the ridicule of driving a yellow Metro might be a little too much.

I would swap only because I haven't owned a Metro like that yet but think you could probably get a better swap with the 340 for something else.

I agree - with the very minor change outlined above.

I've done some questionable swaps over the last year or so but I think with the Metro you have the potential of getting bored rather quickly and end up with a car that nobody will want to buy.

I swapped the tata for a rascal then a rover metro for the tata plus trailer then sold all 3 and ended up buying the tata at a later date.

I swapped the Niva for the espace then swapped for the xantia then swapped for the 440 then swapped for the 306 then got the 440 and ended up with a Subaru Forester.

I started with an e36 318is, swapped for a Fiat 127, then a 240 and finally a W123.

 

On the other hand the metro has a good pcd for wheels and you have a set of ats classics which would look good on the car.

Wife had 340 then a Metro. I never liked 340 but I can understand those who do. I'd have a Metro, of course they're flawed but immensely characterful. If it's too slow it's easy to make it quicker. These two cars are like chalk and cheese, theres nothing like either today.

The Mk2 Cavalier was the second most disappointing I've ever driven, just pipped by the Mk1 Astra.

 

I could see that they were a great leap forward in many ways but they seemed to be a leap back in too many others.

 

It's good to see one now though.
