New Smarts for sale

The semi-automatic gearbox takes some getting used to, but the car is surprisingly adept on the motorway as long as it’s not too windy. Parking in town is obviously a doddle, low emissions put all models bar the Brabus in the 10% tax bracket, and Mercedes’ ownership of Smart means excellent build quality. Worries concerning safety in such a small car are actually unfounded as the fortwo has a very strong structure. Programmed-in under steer means it’s now almost impossible to tip one over in normal (or even elk-avoiding) driving. It’s roomier than you might think, too: you can fit a tumble dryer in the back.
