We are BIG. He is 6'8" tall and I am of a similar width and we fit easily into mine.

Had to try it on before buying because we thought it would be far too small to accommodate us but it is not so much a small car as a large car with no back.

In my life I have owned a purple Hillman Imp and driven Simca vans.I know mobile scrapyards!

I think the Smart cars look good!

The worst car we ever used (it was a rental in eastern Europe) was a Yugo Zastava. It was like driving a tin can. :-(

I think you could drive an Isetta on a motorcycle licence. Wasn't that made by BMW?

Rather reminiscent of the Isetta, in days gone by........methinks.......

small but effective!

Sharron I never understand people who turn there noses up at any car, as long as it has wheels, goes and is safe, is great as far as I am concerned.

The cheaper it is to run the better, those who have a car they can't afford, just to say they have it, are dopey :-D

I love the look of Smart cars by the way :-D

With an overall cringe factor of 7.6 it is, of course, the Smart!

Wouldn't you just know it?

I will be so embarrassed when I am renewing my free RFL and buying my £50 tyre. On the odd occasion I do have to visit a forecourt I will do it after dark.
