I think I am developing a thing for Metros - very few nice ones on the road, the styling suddenly looks crisp and neat, and they seem to be overlooked compared to 205s, Golfs, Fiestas etc from the time. Guy on Ebay wants £2500 for a 3000-miler, seems a bit steep to me even for one so box-fresh (theres also a nice-looking 31k car on for £895) but maybe their time is coming.
