Scratch on bumper.The rear wheel archs have been filled and spayed when I first got it so will need a longer term repair one day.One of the rear doors does not work on the central lockingAlloy wheels??? This is a fully running car I took to BMC day Perterborough last year. I have the V5C in my name. I have owned it nearly 2 years. A lovely car that looks and feels like a 37,000 mile car, in my favourite colour Nightfire Met. Shiters price £500 Collect from Buckingham. I can meet you from train or bus at Milton Keynes, Banbury, Aylesbury etc Getting that Metro Urge 3 years or more ago I have wanted a Metro and started looking to buy one, aiming for a 1275cc A series. I was really looking for an up and running car with MOT that I could improve. One of my favorite was a project 1.3S in Lime green but I was outbid. As time went on I realized that they had gone beyond my budget and I wanted a bit more performance than a 998cc so widened my search to include Metro 1.4 K series cars. My desire had cooled a little as I had been searching for so long. Then a member of this parish offered a K series with HGF. That took longer to fix than expected so I parked that up. (full story on request) I still had the Metro desire and wanted a MG/Turbo/S 1275cc but the prices had risen too much and I did not fancy telling Mrs 6C how I had spent a fortune on a Metro! So I settled for a 36k 114 SLi 5 door and a great car. Next I was offered some Metro brochures for the price of the postage and gladly accepted them, they included a MK1 MG Metro brochure which I had left lying around. Mrs 6C found it and proclaimed she loved MK1 MG models and could we not get one! She asked what was for sale now and I found two project cars and she instructed me to buy one! The MG Metro is now on the road so I have to part with my 114 SLi. worldofceri, M'coli, Mr Laurence and 12 others 15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nacho man Posted August 3, 2017 Share Posted August 3, 2017 Thats a corker. Why one 6x9? My good mate had one in college, we hooked up two massive house speakers in the boot and we used to drive around Notts city centre playing reggae. Badass.

Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk In old git world! Remember I make Victor Meldrew look like a broad minded cheerful character! I agree the original plastic trims are rubbish but original Rover alloys look so much better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
