Classic Austin Metropolitan.
Seen here at Tatton are a pair of Metropolitans finished in the de-rigeur bright colour schemes. Nash also used this design for their own small car range in the US. Good examples are keenly sought nowadays.
Austin Books Whether for the Metropolitan as shown below, or any other type of Austin, it is worth having a look on Amazon for books, DVDs, Videos etc.

Metropolitan on display at Tatton Park, Cheshire.
If you have any more info or restoration stories about this particular Metropolitan, or Metropolitans in general, I'd really like to feature it on oldclassiccar.
I took all these photos at the classic & vintage show held at Tatton Park, in June 2005. The Austin shown above was one of several hundred vehicles held in the grounds of this National Trust property.
