The Rover Metro, a small city car produced by the British Motor Corporation (BMC) and later Rover Group from 1980 to 1990, was a revolutionary model that marked a significant shift in the company's approach to the automotive market. The Metro was designed to be a direct competitor to the popular Ford Fiesta and Vauxhall Nova, offering a combination of affordability, practicality, and fuel efficiency. It was the first car to be produced on a completely new platform specifically designed for front-wheel drive, a technological advancement that became increasingly popular in the 1980s. The Metro's design, spearheaded by the renowned Italian designer, Giorgetto Giugiaro, was characterized by its sharp lines, distinctive grille, and boxy shape. The Metro's success was due, in part, to its wide range of body styles, encompassing three-door and five-door hatchbacks, a van, and even a convertible. The engine choices were varied, starting with the fuel-efficient 998cc and 1098cc petrol engines, with the later models offering more powerful 1275cc and 1399cc options. The Metro's legacy extends beyond its commercial success. It became a cultural symbol of the 1980s, appearing in numerous films and television shows, and even being used in motorsports. The car's affordability and reliability made it a popular choice for young drivers and families alike, solidifying its place in British automotive history. Despite its production ceasing in 1990, the Metro remains a sought-after classic car, particularly its earlier models, which are now considered highly collectible. The Rover Metro's service repair manual, designed for the model years 1980-1990, is an invaluable resource for owners, enthusiasts, and mechanics alike. It provides comprehensive information, including detailed instructions and diagrams for maintaining and repairing the car, covering every aspect from basic servicing to more complex engine and transmission repairs.
