2005 smart roadster coupe review from UK and Ireland
"I love it to bits"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Brake light fault first week of purchase
boot lid hinges bubbled paint-replaced
boot lid not re-aligned correctly
condensation like rain on roof interior
windows grated when going up or down
sound system terrible especially with roof off
rear window heater not working
car went back into dealer for over a week to have new seals, new boot, new window seals, roof seals,
something strange now happening with gears push lever to A and it goes into 0.
General comments?
I fell in love with it the moment I had a test drive still love it, but I think it is a summer car.
