Martin's 1993 Rover Metro 1.8 VVC

Post by Metromartin »

Hello All,
This is my 1993 Rover Metro C. I have owned it since 2002. It started out as a 1.1C model with 4 speed carburetor but has had a 1.8 16v VVC MEMS2 engine installed with a fully stainless Piper exhaust system. Other extra's to build up to this spec required its wiring is from a Rover 114 GSi MPi, Seats from a GTi MPi, GTa black carpet, red seat belts, Rover 200vi leather steering wheel with Rover 100 SRS air bag system and radio remote control wired up with Sony to Rover Stalk remote patch cable, electric windows, remote central locking, GTi body kit, fully polybushed suspension all round and SPAX adjustable front dampers with OEM new old stock GTi strengthening mount brackets professionally welded in, the rare Rover Montego GSi interior lamp delay & dimmer function and the OEM Rover driving / Spot light optional extra kit added with OEM Rover spot lamp clear covers which are the same part as a Rover Mini sportpack.
