Step inside the cozy cabin, and you're greeted by a black and white vinyl and cloth interior that's a perfect match for the exterior. The bucket seats are comfortable, and the dash-mounted shifter for the 3-speed manual transmission adds a touch of sportiness. The black diamond pattern upholstery with white trim is believed to be original and still presents well, with only minor signs of age. The Smiths speedometer, a nod to the car's British origins, takes center stage on the dash.
At the heart of this Metropolitan beats a peppy 1500cc inline-4 engine, fed by a single barrel carburetor. While the engine is a Series III unit it's been transplanted into this Series IV chassis, making for an interesting blend of Metropolitan history under the hood. The engine pairs with a 3-speed manual transmission to deliver a driving experience that's both engaging and economical. The car features drum brakes on all four corners, with coil springs and shocks up front and leaf springs with shocks in the rear. An aftermarket muffler adds a touch of character to the exhaust note.
