I know I mentioned it on another topic re insurance payouts, but having had a day or so now to play with her 'new' car ..... it's brilliant to drive. They're not fast, sod all room inside them & your bum is inches off the ground, but you just point them in the direction of the corner & press the throttle and off it goes! 3 cylinders 698cc 80bhp but just about a tonne in weight.  :y  :y  :y  :y

do they have 'net' like seats? remember sitting in one years ago and they were comfy but not sure how well they would last up.

Bit small for me, but as long as the mrs is happy thats all that matters.  :)

No they're not 'net' like, there are nicer seats around, like the heated Brabus leather, but these are OK. They give good support at the sides & you're held in pretty well.

You'd be surprised, I think you'd get in OK. My 6' 2" mate got in OK - he didn't drive it

This was at a Merc dealer ages ago, like the SmartForTwo i was surprised at how roomy it felt inside. I could get in no probs  :)  :y
