Smart cars?

Amadeus sounds like it may be a contender!

Wolfgang Amadeus Mo-Smart...? :idea:

Sadly, Mozart's real full name was a lot less catchy... [ame="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wolfgang_Amadeus_Mozart"]Johannes Chrysostomus Wolfgangus Theophilus Mozart[/ame]

See: this is what happens when you're laid up, after an op, with too much time on your hands, and too many industrial-strength pain-killing drugs... :yum:

Normal service will be resumed as soon as... -- well, possibly, never... :spin:

 

[Didge3]

You could name him Dale, a bit orange and a bit of a poof.

 

[Modette]

OK here it is, just been cleaned inside and out.

Thats it! Thats his name. Love it. Thank you

The interior...

...really is something else! I'd have to wear my sunglasses even when driving at night...!

Otherwise: quite cute...!

PS: Glad you like the name, too... -- really suits it...!

PPS: Just noticed the bumper sticker...

Why is the steering wheel on the wrong side?!

You ain't see nothing, yet! This is Gordon Murray's latest idea... -- only a third of a car...!

Think I'd prefer a G-wiz.

I think on the earlier ForTwo's the blue plastic is standard across all the models and the material/second colour is the only thing you can change. (I am not sure of this but most earlier models I have seen have the same blue plastic and a different second colour)

So I don't think the original owner had to stick with the blue but why he/she choose orange to go with it is beyond me...

First tank used. Some motorway driving, some auto, some manual. Some by me, some by my son, no particular attention taken to economical driving. Just getting used to it - my son got a top speed of 85mph WOOHOO. I think it was downhill with the wind behind him but even so...

One full tank did 193 miles and cost less than £25.


Now we will see how much it does when we are being careful.

Does that work out to about 53mpg or do I need maths lessons?

 

[Modette]

I dont do maths

 

[PuntoHowTo]

Does that work out to about 53mpg or do I need maths lessons?

depends on the price of the fuel per litre

 

[Modette]

Oh yes I also bought the premium unleaded stuff thats more expensive but I never check prices I just buy what I need or what I can afford. So whatever £20 buys me...

 

[Shadeyman]

Average petrol price is £1.35 a litre.

My maths are about as good as my English(crap), I get 53mpg. My Multiwagon acheives that on a regular basis, would have expected better from a Smart to be honest .. :shrug:

Cor... -- I'm paying that for normal unleaded...

Fuel prices seem to vary a lot depending where in the country(UK) you live.

I found fuel prices in Scotland cheaper than here in the midlands ..

 

[ChrisUK]

I paid £1.52 for diesel today. I'm still sore from the rape.
