    Did you drive the triple or 4-cyl?


    Honestly I don't know it was many many years ago. IIRC it wasn't exactly quick, so I'm going to go with the former...

    Yep. Probably the former.

    You know, the Swift GT had the same mechanicals as the Metro, but with a 100hp 1.3L twin cam and larger, grippier tires. It was actually a pretty zippy & fun car -- I'd say comparable in price & mission to what the Micra is today. Slightly better power:weight ratio, even.
