1989 Geo Metro consumer reviews

This 1989 Geo Metro purchased new was by far the best vehicle I have ever owned. 50+mpg for the first year and still 30+mpg when finally sold with over 306,000 miles. 3 spark plugs that were so easy to install that you could do it while putting gas in this car. For a sub-compact it was more then adequate for whatever reason you might want to buy a sub-compact for.

I bought it new in 1989. It now has 219,000 mile on it. It has had a new clutch, water pump, alternator, front brakes. It has had all the hoses and bests replaced many times. Other than that it has been trouble free. It is now our daily driver because of high gas prices! It gets between 46 and 50 mph, consistantly. It uses approx 1 qt of oil every 3000 miles. It still gets serviced every 3000 miles. It doesn't have any oil leaks. There are some things wearing out, like struts, and shock. I wouldn't want to try and drive it from here to new york, but for short trips, and around town It's still a great little car.

I'm still driving this car, great gas mileage. But it is so old now that I need a new one. This car is roomy inside for such a small vehicle. I wish they were back on the market, I'd get another.
