1985 Austin Metro - Barons Tuesday 16th July 2019 For Sale by Auction

The Metro was produced by British Leyland from 1980 to 1998. It was launched in 1980, and was intended to replace the Mini. During its 18-year lifespan, the Metro wore many names: Austin Metro, MG Metro and Rover Metro. It was re-badged as the Rover 100 series in January 1995.

At the time of its launch, the Metro was sold under the Austin name, and from 1982, MG versions became available. It finally ceased production in 1998, being out-lived by the original Mini that it was meant to replace. 2, 078, 218 Metros of all types were built.

This is a 1985 C registration Austin Metro 1. 3 Automatic, in Metallic Silver with a Blue Cloth Interior. The car is said to have only 6, 100 Miles from new. It has its handbook and original service book present. It is still wearing its original metric wheels and tyres, and has been in various collections over the years. The car is in outstanding condition, and very difficult to find in this condition and mileage.
