Members' Metros

James Mclernon presents his 1-owner Metro quest with only 32k miles on the clock from new!

Cathy got in touch after seeing our Metro 40th feature on the BBC. She has quite a collection of Metros; a 1983 MG Metro in Zircon Blue, a 1995 Flame red 114 GTa and finally a 1998 Hawaiian Blue 114 GSi... as well as a 1983 black MG Metro and 1983 Oporto Red Vanden Plas in storage! Here she tells us about her Metros in her own words...

"After 6 months of work I declare it finished!" - Gualberto Rocha

Chris’s Rover 100 Turbo - in his own words...

Tom's first Metro was a Mk1 Austin Metro 998cc, which he still owns and has been his daily driver for the past 6 years. Wanting something with a bit more power he purchased a 1993 Mk3 Metro when it came up for sale locally; first converting to 1.8 VVC and then into a van project...

With 261hp, Sean Waite's turbo Rover Metro is the one of the finest examples of a Rover Metro in the scene. With 261hp it doesn't hang around either! Read the story if this stunning car within. 

'How many friends would I lose?' is the question Craig asked just before the V5 for a purple Rover 114 Cabriolet was signed over to him, although it seems he does not regret the decision. Read the story of this rare car within.

Now here's something a little bit different! A Rover 100 powered by an Audi 20v, and it's turbocharged to boot!

Here Allen tells the story of his interesting Rover 111 Kensington with A-Series front and rear end conversion! Very cool.

An immaculate Metro turbo is a rare thing these days. Member Jim Lott has that base firmly covered with his 1989 example, though. Jim tells us the story of how the car came to be with detailed specifications within!
