Just picked this up to use as a trackday/road toy.

Won't be to many peoples tastes. But it's a giggle

Does that have the Talon Sportscars kit on it? If it does, then that is one very brutal machine! I bet that catches some cars out!



I crown it King Sleeper biggrin

Very nice!



Is it the 145 or 160hp vvc? I imagine it shifts fairly whatever it is, ideal choice for a cheap track/ weekend car biggrin

Thanks for the comments.

It's not a Talon conversion. The previous owners done all the work. It's the 143bhp vvc engine with k&n and full exhaust system. Been lowered aswell.

Plan to uprate the brakes and then get it booked into a trackday at brands hatch smile

It's such a laugh to drive. I used to have a track prepared 205 mi-16 on twin 45's. I think the metro would give it a bloody good race.

Any other metro owners on here?
