The MG Metro, a small city car produced by British Leyland (later Rover Group) from 1980 to 1997, stands as a testament to the company's ingenuity in squeezing practicality and performance into a compact package. Launched as a replacement for the aging Austin Mini, the Metro sought to capture the hearts of urban dwellers with its nimble handling, fuel efficiency, and versatile interior. Its design, penned by Roy Axe, featured a boxy, yet surprisingly aerodynamic, body that housed a spacious cabin capable of seating four adults comfortably. The Metro's revolutionary monocoque chassis construction, made of lightweight steel, allowed for a weight reduction that translated to impressive fuel economy and peppy performance. While the early models were powered by modest 1.0 and 1.3-liter engines, later iterations offered more powerful units, including the sporty 1.4-liter MG Metro Turbo, capable of achieving a top speed of 110 mph. Despite its initial success, the Metro faced stiff competition from other small city cars, particularly from the likes of the Ford Fiesta and Vauxhall Nova. However, the model remained a popular choice for budget-conscious buyers, especially thanks to its reputation for reliability and low running costs. Throughout its 17-year production run, the Metro underwent several revisions and facelifts, with each iteration receiving subtle yet significant upgrades. In its final years, the Metro was rebadged as the Rover 100, marking a final chapter in the long-running saga of this iconic British city car. The MG Metro Service Repair Manual, a comprehensive guide for mechanics and enthusiasts alike, serves as a vital resource for maintaining and repairing this beloved vehicle. From troubleshooting engine issues to performing routine maintenance, the manual provides detailed instructions and diagrams, ensuring that the Metro continues to run smoothly for generations to come.
