electra225 ◊ 2010-02-25 14:18	I think it's still an Austin Metro and not yet a Rover (Metro)100. I'm almost sure by some parts as the tail lights, the directional side lights and the rear third door.
twingoman ◊ 2010-02-25 14:23	Yes, it's definately a Metro, rather than the 1990 on Rover 100, but the Austin name was dropped around 1986/87 and I think they were just badged Metro. However, it's probably best to list it as Austin Metro.
