Default New car (not a scooby replacement though)

Just bought another car (not to replace the scooby) just to give it a bit of a rest (& my wallet at the petrol pumps.)

Got a smart car - 'yay' - i know everyones gonna take the **** but i think you cant beat em as a car for just getting to & from work.....

So wots your opion guys - "smart or not so smart" ??

Thats ok - i'm not planning on crashing it

Naah its just black ! - like i said its only for getting to & from work.

I looked at other small cars & there was no way i was gonna buy a Ka or a Corsa or some other ****e like that.

Besides - the smart has a better spec then my scooby, gonna be a bit weird goin from 300+ bhp to 54 bhp
