1996 Geo Metro

Geo Metro (1996)
for sale

Price: US $125.00

Description:

270, 633 miles (at onset of this ad). Might be starting to use a little oil (about 1-2 pints between oil changes) - either that or just the valve cover gasket on top of the engine needs replacement. Local repair shop quoted me about $175 last year.Interior dash area is a bit scruffy. I think the previous owner might have painted it a darker tan, but over time has dried out. A small dent on the hood. Left headlamp plastic shroud has been partially cut away on top (see pictures) for convenience in changing the headlamp. Oh, I taped the Over $1, 800 in repairs done in 2017, namely: heater/blower motor switch, new windshield, axle and clutch work. Has a tune-up kit (not installed). To me, muffler sounds a bit louder than I would think it should be. Paint job has oxidized, so could use a new paint job. Seats are okay, small rip on the side of the front seat. I've driven the car since I bought it in 2008 when it had 113, 000 miles on it - have been getting around 40-48 mpg. Mostly distance driving.
Engine, clutch or transmission do not seem to have any problems. I'm only a basic auto mechanic (oil changes, tune-ups) and so am not qualified to render expert inspection.You will need to pick it up, or arrange to pick it up. Title given only when the auto is removed from my property, and payment is in hand (had another nice Geo a few years ago - I alternated driving them. Sold it and the owner never picked it up. So after 6 months, I had to drive it a 100+ miles at my expense to drop it off).
Car is located in Allyn, WA, about 45 minutes north of Olympia, WA; about 45 minutes west of Tacoma. If you want to drive over and see it, contact me via eBay to schedule a time.
