Summary of the Smart Roadster (2002-)

Price Range: £13,515 to £17,290

Assets

Highly entertaining, cute looks, durable construction, great handling, versatile roof, cheap to run, a cult car.

Drawbacks

Slow sequential gearshift, poor rear visibility in Coupe, soft throttle response, power steering lacks feel, poor panel fit, small boot, expensive for what it is.

Verdict

An exotic-looking car at a reasonable price and a hoot to drive. But there are compromises and the prices are high for such a small-engined vehicle.
