No synchro on first in a Metro. It *will* go in if you push hard enough.

Really? My first Mini (circa 1965) had no synchro on first but I thought
they fixed that a few years later. Odd that this still persisted all the
way to the Metro - 15 years later or so.


My first car was a 1976 Mini, and had synchro on all 4 gears. That's
older than any Metro.
