It was ROTTEN everywhere inside. This'll make you cry, at the same time as this ultra rare black G reg was in there was an L reg red lux pack gti in aswell, with all the goodies.

I also have a pic of a BRM I found aswell.

As said its an old photo, but yeah, JohnA88 bought the interior and front bumper. The skirts had the rear bits missing.

Anyone else got any scrap yard metro photos?

Metro 1.4L Rusted to hell!


Carri blue 1.1S. Rear end shunt but it collapsed so easily as it was all rusty in the back panels.



Shed loads of wedges and bubble 200s and 400s!
