I managed to get 42 MPG (Imperial) out of an '81 Celica, but now I'm onto Metros. I've got a 4-door automatic to fix and sell, and a 3/5 coupe to improve and keep. Aero mods come easiest to me.

Hi Bicycle Bob - welcome to the site.

Glad to see another Metro fan. I'm quite sure you can make a buck on the Metro resale (assuming you were able to buy it at a decent price - apparently that's getting harder).

Not surprised to read your interest in aero, given your username.
