The Austin Metro and its rebadged counterpart, the MG Metro, were small city cars produced by British Leyland (later Rover Group) from 1980 to 1990. Designed by Harry Webster and launched under the Austin brand, the Metro was a significant departure from previous British Leyland models, offering a front-wheel drive layout and a compact, aerodynamic design. The car aimed to compete with popular European models like the Volkswagen Polo and Fiat Uno, offering a blend of practicality, affordability, and fuel efficiency. The MG Metro, introduced in 1982, provided a sportier alternative to the standard Austin model. It boasted a more powerful engine, a unique body kit with a distinctive grille and rear spoiler, and a sportier interior trim.

The Austin Metro and MG Metro proved to be popular choices for city dwellers, offering nimble handling and excellent fuel economy. The cars were available with a range of petrol engines, ranging from the basic 998 cc unit to the more powerful 1.3-liter engine in the MG Metro. The model lineup included various body styles, including a three-door hatchback, a five-door hatchback, and a van. Despite facing competition from established rivals, the Metro enjoyed commercial success, becoming one of the best-selling cars in the UK during its production run. However, the car's reputation was somewhat tarnished by reliability issues and concerns about build quality, contributing to its eventual discontinuation in 1990. The Austin Metro and MG Metro, despite their shortcomings, remain significant milestones in British automotive history, representing a shift towards more compact and fuel-efficient designs, marking a new era for British Leyland's small car offerings.
