nope but theres one outside my work every day (bloke who works here) its a convertible as well...and you didnt read wrong...i said a bloke....

 

what i wanna know, were you double parked or did you get out your car to take that pic in a traffic jam or something? lol

Ha, yeah the reason I asked is because my mate has one, hes a bloke aswell! Hes never really said too much about the performance of it, he used to have a Clio sport, so can't imagine it would be an upgrade in performance...

The wheels and tyres comprise the handling pack, which adds ΂£750 to the price of your Smart (this one started life as a Passion, basic price ΂£7965). Add another ΂£1500 for the 'performance pack', basically an engine chip and sports exhaust, which lifts the output of the 599cc 'three' from 61bhp to 70bhp, and around ΂£3000 for the 'body styling kit'. With all the other Brabus trinkets (aluminium gearknob, etc) you could spend over ΂£5500 making your Smart look and go like the one here. That brings the total to over thirteen and a half thousand pounds.

And you'd still only have 70bhp. OK, the 0-60 time drops from around 16sec to a slightly less slothful 14sec, and initially it feels quicker than that, stepping off the line pretty briskly, but once you're underway you have to work it hard to maintain a decent pace on the open road. And while it sounds endearingly throaty, in truth it never feels exactly sporty.

 

 

 

 

sooooood that!

what more can you expect from a 600cc engine? any more and it would probably melt!
So basically, your paying through the nose for a body kit, and a noise, rather than the performance?
would seam that was, in essence we do if with the GTi and the 1.8 LX - same cars but with trimmings!
dont they do a turbo version of it?
it is turbo'd as standard, VERY low compression - ive herd a dump valve on this, its errrr, like a minor cold :mellow:
