Smart Fortwo
£9,200 - £16,500
For
- Charm
- Economy
- Impressive reliability
Against
- Choppy ride
- Straight-line gearchange still oddball
- Steering nothing special
Performance and reliability are both good, but it’s still a quirky drive. Newly arrived 800ccc, 45 bhp diesel exchanges outright performance for spectacular economy, but best combination of all things seems to be 70 bhp petrol.
