To view additional photos, please visit www.eastlancashireclassics.com

A truly sensational, multi award winning concours Rover Metro 1.3L Clubman. This remarkable little car has got to be one of the most highly detailed and highly decorated Metro's on the show circuit and being owned by the Metro Owners Club Chairman, Mr Tom Morley, it is without doubt one of the very best that are known to exist. Over 11 years of ownership, complete dedication and meticulous attention to detail secured the prestigious accolade of a finalist award and the car being displayed on the Meguiar's Club Showcase stand at the NEC in 2019.

Rolling off the factory assembly line on 13/11/1989, it was then registered by Lex Mead Stockport to Mrs E McHale on 21/11/1989. It was kept strictly garaged, cossetted, loved and serviced every year for the next 20 years until the passing of Mrs McHale in 2009. It was then purchased by Tom Morley in that same year. Tom is an avid collector of BL produced vehicles and is evidently a perfectionist with an incredible drive and passion for detail. Tom is also the Chairman of the Metro Owners Club.

We consider this to be a very rare opportunity to obtain one of the very very best and highly detailed Rover Metros that exists. Hopefully it will find a new home were it is still used, taken to shows and admired...just get the trophy cabinet ready! Listed below are some of its accolades...
