The screaming MG Metro 6R4 is being reborn for 2024...
Chief among these upgrades will be an all-new carbonfibre body shell, engineered in partnership with New Zealand firm Innovate Composites, designed to the exact dimensions of the original car's glassfibre body.
MST hasn't yet confirmed whether this will make it any lighter than the 1040kg original, although it will also no doubt feature a heavily reinforced chassis, as with the company's previous creations. Beyond that, all MST has so far confirmed is that the"all-new 6R4" will match the original car in taking its power from a mid-mounted V6, driving both axles through a sequential gearbox. There were two versions: the road-legal Clubman, with around 250bhp, and the International, which ramped up output to 410bhp for motorsport applications.
A supplier for the new engine hasn't been announced. MST uses a 2.0-litre Cosworth-designed BDG race engine in the Mk1 and a 2.5-litre Ford Durance lump in the Mk2, both of four-cylinder format.
