The Metro 3 and 5 door models, with VIN starting from XP100001 in April 1990, marked a significant chapter in the British automotive landscape. The Rover Group had been through numerous changes by this time, transitioning from the original Austin Mini Metro of the early '80s to a more refined marque. By then under the ownership of British Aerospace after its privatisation in 1988, these particular iterations were indicative of an effort to upscale and modernise their fleet against fierce competition.

These specific models introduced improvements over previous generations, with updated interiors for enhanced comfort and a refreshed exterior design. The aim was to achieve a sleeker appearance while maintaining the practicality characteristic of small family cars. Engine choices varied but included both petrol and diesel options tailored for economy-minded consumers amid rising fuel prices. Safety features such as crumple zones and side-impact bars became standard fit, reflecting growing consumer demand for safer vehicles. While never reaching iconic status like its predecessor the Mini, it nonetheless carved out its niche within Britain's motoring scene before production eventually ceased in late 1994 as Rover shifted focus towards larger vehicles like the Rover 100 series which succeeded it.

We have available for download (free of charge) an MG Rover parts quickfinder catalogue (covering MG ZR/ZS/ZT, Rover 25/45/75, Rover 200/400/600/800, Rover Mini, City Rover, Metro, Montego, Maestro, Sprite/Midget and Rover P5 and Rover P6).

Rimmer Bros, established in 1982, is a British company supporting British cars. The Rimmer Bros service is hard to beat: we have the parts, we guarantee the quality, we're keen on price, we deliver fast, we know your car.

As the British motor industry contracted, Rimmer Bros expanded to ensure the continued maintenance, restoration and enjoyment of many beloved classic cars no longer supported by their original makers. Our support, starting strongly with Triumph, extended to include Rover SD1 models in the 1990s, and later expanded to cover Land Rover and Range Rover models, reaching up to the present day. In 2005, our commitment grew to encompass more modern MG-Rover cars and by 2012 we further extended our range to include Jaguar models from 1996 onwards. This growth reflects our dedication to serving the diverse community of classic and modern British car enthusiasts.

We are proud to have British Motor Heritage Approval for our Triumph, MG, Mini and Rover SD1 parts operation. First appointed in 1987, Heritage Approval acknowledges the highest possible standards of service, product knowledge, financial stability and well-equipped premises. We always carry a wide range of Heritage Original Equipment parts in stock.

As a long-established business, customer satisfaction is at the heart of everything we do.
