All that work and still it turned out shit

One thing I would say is the metro had an extremely tall engine bay, due to the A+ engine being extremely taller than its rivals, this gave an old fashioned driving style which felt like you where driving a double decker bs.

This is just amazing i cannot spot anything i dislike about this video it makes me so happy.

the mini metro was a truly beautiful car, nippy,reliable,well built and so comfortable, even on the longest journey. In short a very desireable car that people are now queueing up to buy whenever they come up for sale second hand even paying more than the asking price !. PS have you seen my metro for sale on ebay ;-)

@silver760 mine must have been a good one then, very little rust and watertight (but yes gutless). Shame I had to cut her up but the engine lives on...............

[silver760]

It's a shame that despite all their extremely hard work that they never found out that the metro rusted terribly and water poured in through the door seals,window seals and bootlid.The 1 litre version was so gutless it was tiresome to drive on your own and disastrous if you had three passengers in it! They mention that during development petrol prices trebled I remember at the time fuel was about 30p litre not the £1.33 it is now!! Shame Longbridge went bust and most of the building demolished.

I like the music at the start of this clip, it's trying to emulate Kraftwerk's Autobahn I assume.
