I've had this car for around 4 years ish now I worked on the clay model in Germany many years ago and always
Fancied one its the Brabus model of the Smart Roadster the standard only has 101bhp but I had it mapped even
Before I sat in the car at a company called S2smarts
So now its pushing out 120bhp from its small 700cc engine which may not sound much but in a car which only
Weighs in at 825kgs it not so bad its good for 130mph

The roof is electric and can be operated at any speed or even on the remote the can't rails remove and are stored in
The front boot the has AC, leather, 6 speed flappy paddle reworked by Brabus , Charge Cooler , 17'' alloys and so on
The car normally returns high 40's to low 50's mpg is is great fun to drive

Love the Smart roadsters, I remember when I had my Fn2 & came across one, It took me totally by surprise how nippy they actually are. I can see them being a really fun sunny Sunday B road car

It's true on B roads there great , they are so low to the ground there like a go-Kat on steroids
Sat in the driver seat open the door and you can place your hand flat on the ground almost
I would like the S-Mann exhaust and Cat as it would take the power up to 130+

You get the idea of how small it is in this picture next to my old S2k

Had a pop on Ebay after my post :lol: 15k for low mileage 05 & 06 plates they seem to hold value well, would have to be black for me though.
I had a listen on youtube to aftermarket exhausts again was pleasantly surprised
