Default Zero in a Smart

I am considering buying a Smart car for commuting in. They are cheap to insure and run on petrol fumes

Any thoughts in these motors?

Personal opinion - they make me want to

If it suits your purpose, then go for it.

There are other small cars which bang for buck are far cheaper, and far more practicle. Honda Jazz or Toyoto Yaris ?

I recall seeing a couple of men in a Smart convertible a couple of years ago. This was close to Ikea BTW. They both looked very self-concious

It was posted by Zero so there is a fighting chance.

I seem to recall a similar thread on the Smart sometime ago...
