1992 | Rover | Metro L | 64,724 (Warranted) | No Reserve | |
Description:In Brief:
On the Surface: This 1992 Rover Metro L is an early example of the Rover-badged Metro, finished in blue over a cloth interior. Although it is currently a non-runner due to a suspected fuel pump or sender failure, the engine is free, turns, and fires with easy start. Additionally, the fuel gauge is not functioning. Maintenance & History: The car has been owned by the vendor since 1996, having been purchased from Martins Rover of Winchester, a Rover Main Dealer. This Metro has had only one previous keeper before The Vendor’s near three-decade stewardship. Despite covering just 201 miles since its last MOT in 2009, the car was stored in a garage and started periodically. A comprehensive history file accompanies the car, including the original Rover Owner Information and Service Record, MOT certificates dating back to 1996, and servicing and maintenance invoices totaling nearly £3,500. In the Rover Owner Information and Service Record you will find 8 stamps for services carried out between 1993 at 4,093 miles and 1999 at 38,400 miles. The Model: Launched in May 1990, the Rover Metro was a significant evolution of the original Metro, marking a departure from the Austin badge in 1987. This example features the modernised design brought in for the new Rover badged Metro, ‘L’ level trimo and the 1.1-litre K-series 8-valve engine. Sale Insight: With its low mileage and long-term ownership, this Metro presents an excellent opportunity as a restoration project or for parts. |
