The Austin Maestro was launched in 1983 as a 5 door compact hatchback, together with a 1600cc MG version, powered by a Rover R Series engine with twin Weber carburettors. The R series engine proved troublesome, to srart when warm and its Weber carburettors were problematic to dealership workshops, who were used to SU carburettors. The R Series engine was dropped in July 1984, replaced by a short lived S series engine until the end of the 1984 model year

 

The 2.0EFi was introduced as its replacement in October 1984 for the 1985 model year. The fuel-injected 2.0-litre O-series engine gave a much better performance and handling was also improved handling was also improved giving Austin-Rover a serious competitor in the VW Golf GTi, Ford Escort XR3i market.

 

The EFi was joined in 1989 by the MG Maestro Turbo, a car capable of 130mph.
