Are you still enjoying my old roadster? I got this from Geoff and then exchanged it for a lower mileage one. (I have now done over 150K in total over 4 Roadsters)

I absolutely love it! I have done a oil change and a service I plan to change the sump and upgrade the turbo and just leave it as ‘stock’ as possible lol

Der smart roadster ist mein Lieblingsauto, deshalb auch mein Titelbild. Ich fahre ihn schon seit 19 Jahren und er macht einfach nur Spaß! Im Moment hat er ein Problem, aber ich hoffe, meine Werkstatt, in der ich auch eine Lehre gemacht habe, bringt das wieder in Ordnung. Dir wünsche ich noch viel Freunde mit deinem roadster und danke für das schöne Video

The current market price makes it more of an investment rather than a simple purchase. Smart roadsters are truly unique and hold great value.

Fantastic cars.... I've owned my finale edition for over 12 years. I don't think I'll ever get rid of it.... It now only comes out on sunny days but apart from a slight leak over the door mirrors, it has never missed a beat. I love it. 😊

I own a 2006 Roadster coupe. I’ve owned it for 5 years it’s done 26000 miles and drives like new. I’m a retired mechanic so i do all my own maintenance. So much fun to drive. It’s got a hard top that’s insulated that stops leaks and you can drive it even in winter. A fantastic car and can do 65mpg. A future classic I’m sure. Enjoy yours.

@@quyhillchaos It was one of my dream cars. I wanted it for 2 years at this point and I decided to buy one from a dealer near me. It was mapped with an aftermarket turbo and air-filter, great fun as a daily, it made a tremendous sound. I couldn't believe I actually got to own a Smart Roadster, it felt unreal. Unfortunately after 2 weeks of buying it, the car started to overheat badly (according to the temperature guage). Quickly it would rise up to 130c. I decided to return it to the dealer as I felt that the car going wrong after 2 weeks was unacceptable. My heart said to keep it but in the end, my head said to get rid of it. I will be buying another one in the future though, too much fun.

Love the red/black colouring on these cars. Closest you can get to them nowadays is the Kia Picanto GT-Line S

You have a cupholder. It's located in the back of the passengers seat. You just need to close it first. Once you find "it", you should remember its officially cupholder and coat hanger. =) Gearbox is also 3 speed with 2 final drives. That Is the reason why 3->4 or 4->3 switcher are longer then other ones. For performance driving try to avoid those gear switches, or go straight to 2->4 / downshift from 4th to 2nd with gas pedal(kickdown button). Also on downshifts "blip" the throttle, will rev match better and spool the turbo a bit. You can switch 2>5 gear with auto/manual button. Just get to 5800-6000 rpm on 2nd, let go on throttle, push "auto' button on gearbox, it will go on 5th gear. Boost on gears 1-5 is 1bar, gear 6 does 0.7 bar on stock 86hp firmware. Brabus is running 1.2 bar afaik.

You can fit golf clubs in the rear, I have frequently. Just need a pencil bag rather than a more regular bag.

Those cars aren't about breaking speed limits but their only made to have a whole lot of fun, that might be also one of the reasons it sold so poorly in the 2000's, obviously back in the day there were cars with better spec sheets for cheaper but when you really try one that's when you can feel the joy it can bring to you

roadster owner here ! glad youve joined the owners group. My only question is what made you go for a notchback instead of a coupe?
@quyhillchaos
@quyhillchaos Жыл бұрын
I prefer the shape of the notchback, I know the roof will need maintenance inevitably in the future but for now I love simplicity of the convertible

Sadly only one. Not allowed on the road in the. States. Had an American family member over we all went to the Scotish Highlands on holiday. Let him drive for much of the time of around three weeks. Don'think the grin left his face, he is I his early thirties. I drove the 568 miles home and much to my surprise was not remotely stiff being over 60 a pleasant surprise, only two brief stops

Die ersten smart citycoupe/fortwo und der roadster waren nicht für die USA zugelassen. Erst der zweite fortwo wurde von uns in Renningen (Germany) für den USA-Markt entwickelt.
