Roger Chatfield 0 Posted February 7, 2015 Greetings rado chums, Is it wrong that I really like these.. Yes I know not much power from the 700cc turbo engine but they weigh less than a knats bollock so should be fun and I assume there must be 'tuning' options.. Prices seem to reasonable atm, it's got me thinking...... So, anyone have any experience of Smart Coupes? Obviously I realise I'll have to give up my engineering career and take up hair dressing...lol Rog. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
seanl82 23 Posted February 7, 2015 In answer to your question, yes. Looks like it's a GCSE design technology piece by a camp 15 year old boy......... :lol: I'd rather have a Dacia. :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

seanl82 23 Posted February 7, 2015 My old neibour in Plymouth had one of those Sean. (The original one not the coupe). Sounded like a souped up lawnmower! Lol Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sean_Jaymo 0 Posted February 7, 2015 Went quite well but was horrible in traffic. The gearbox was so dim witted, it was embarrassing to drive! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Harrier 1 Posted February 7, 2015 I've driven a few, I quite like how they drive but the worst thing for me was the rock hard suspension, think I would get tired of it quickly. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Roger Chatfield 0 Posted February 8, 2015 A bit of research has revealed that a hyabussa engine can be jammed in the back. That would sort out the engine and gearbox issues.... Just need to find cash for tyres and the impending divorce...lol Rog. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
seanl82 23 Posted February 8, 2015 Now that would be fun at 12k rpm! Oh the shame of being left for dead by one of those! :lol: That coupled with a sequential box would be epic tbf. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
