1) No Turbo

2) The tranny acts all iffy.

3) No manual tranny for this generation.

4) Two rear wheel bearings have been grinding for 11,000 miles. (Will be fixed on Sat)

5) Passenger side skirt is held on by pretty pink zip ties (that are only visible when the car is on a lift)

6) No diesel.

How many miles does it have? I hardly ever see these things with very many miles at all. I guess because they’re usually city cars.

It photographs well!

I must say, I really like the new Smarts in person. They look fantastic.

You probably wouldn’t like a diesel Smart. 800cc, 54 bhp, not a great deal of go.

Slow is how I like to roll lol. Seriously though, during the summer I used to tweak my driving behaviour to achieve an average of 50mpg while keeping up with traffic.

My car is way too old for that lol, I’d need to carry a case of zip ties with me!

It’s a 2012 passion coupe with 111,160 miles. I got it with a tiny 10.2 miles on the odometer

In the US based club, the highest mileage, original engine cars have roughly 250,000. Honestly, only diehard smart owners keep their cars long enough to see them surpass 100k lol
