hmm let me think. The only useful bit of a metro is the engine.......sure i'll buy it :roll:

although without an engine you could always turn it into an evil Group B V6 RWD nasty :lol:

only if you want to use 12" wheels. which i don't. and 1750 for 8.4" brakes with useless hubs is a bit OTT for mine

HEY! Don't knock that Metro! It would be perfect to cram a body into and send off a cliff. With no motor, it would be dead silent...

I thought Metro's were only made so that the engine can be ripped out to be used in Mini's. So for all intensive purposes, this is completely useless!
