A smart car is exactly what it says on the tin - A SMART CAR - economical, comfy, and once you get used to its quirkyness very user friendly.

This car is a great car for my daily commute. It is very economical to run (costs me about £15 a week in petrol to do a 30 minute round trip each day) and is suprisingly nippy. I live in the welsh valleys and it seems to cope extremely well with the many steep hills in my locality. It can also be quite fun, pulling out of junctions because it is so nippy - a little too nippy sometimes. The downsides are, that on some occasions it can be slow to change gear, and also it does not handle adverse weather conditions very well i.e. ice, snow, rain etc. It also seems to go through a hell of alot of oil. I have to fill mine up once a month, and I belive that it is a common problem with these cars to run out of oil. It also has limited boot space but it is surprising how much you can cram in. The interior is basic but comforrtable enough. It is also a dream to park, and you can feel quite smug on occasion after parking it in incredibly small spaces.

Smart ForTwo 0.7 Passion 2004
We bought this as a second car, a run around for when we really needed 2 cars. Boy, what a great thing it is. In the 5 years we had it, we did not have a single issue, except for an aircon-leak that was repaired under warranty. It’s a real joy to own, even more joy to park. Fuel economy is not entirely what you would expect, with only around 50 MPG, but we push the car really hard in every occasion, as in the city you’re faster around than in a Ferrari. Took it to the continent, Paris, Brussels, Provence, if you take enough time to rest during the ride (which can be hard for your back, and noise reduction is not the car’s best quality). Motorway is fine as long as there’s little wind. If you’re looking for a problem less, really cheap to run second car and don’t necessarily need 4 seats, have one of these!

Smart ForTwo Passion 2004
Interesting to drive with amazing room inside for two chunky adults and a Springer spaniel. Gears changes require a degree of skill to smooth them out, both auto and manual. Not perfect but once mastered acceptable in town and country with smooth changes the order of the day. Low excise duty, lots of miles per gallon, although insurance not as low as I expected. Still cheap motoring with the added bonus of fun with little risk to your licence.

Smart ForTwo Pulse 2000
We’ve had our Smart for 8 years now (80,000 miles) with no serious problems. It’s a cheap car to own and run and just so much fun to drive and safe as well! It is surprisingly BIG inside and it’s amazing just how much you can get in it. Performance is also good when you know how to use the car. We will definitely buy another when this one gets tired but no sign of that yet.

New car that is excellent in every respect. Gear change is much smoother and noise level considerably reduced. Running costs make this the ideal every day car for most people.

Smart ForTwo 0.7 Passion 2007
60mpg! Can’t argue with that. Safety features are good, EPS, brake assist and ABS as standard. Improved drive and performance on the older models. This is my second smart and I would definately go for it again.
