Hi MBrevard, In my Smart a full tank of petrol holds 35 litres of unleaded and that gets me about 350 miles of general town driving.
The european versions have a limiter fitted so that they cannot exceed 84mph (although they can be chipped to get to 127.8mph) this is becasue aboive this, the small engines cannot handle it!!
Kitty Kat, Don't worry, we Smarties get insulted on a regular basis and do not take it personally!! I often get asked when i will be buying the other half, whether it is a kit car that i got bored building, I think you can probably guess the rest!!!!
Famous Smarties include Joanna Lumley, Sir Stirling Moss and Tony Blackburn!!!
