2003 smart fortwo - city coupe Passion review from UK and Ireland
"Totally practical and sensible in todays motoring environment"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The brake light switch has failed twice.
General comments?
I wanted a sports car to satisfy the cravings of my mid life crisis. I could not find anything in my price range which suited me for my size of 6'2" and 17st. For me, the car looks simply superb. Once inside, there is oceans of room. Honest.
Driving is another thing, it's like a go cart. That is the only way I can describe it.
Running costs are a laugh and there is no better buzz than overtaking someone! Some drivers do not like being overtaken by a Smart! It is THE only way to travel.
It has completely satisfied my cravings for a sports car! What would I change it for? An officially imported diesel version, that is all.
