It is very very cool, (but thanks Doc) I actually enjoyed my commute home, in spite of taking it easy to run in the motor (I still belive in this quaint old tradition!)
Just need to work out a few things now, tried to get the auto closing windows / sun roof to work but i think i got that wrong (searching on the forums here came up with press and hold lock, so I'll try that again) and the other thing is the revised stereo, why on earth are the buttons a different colour... however that should be sorted when i get the cash together to Alpine the HU and add in GPS... ;-)

lol i amire your sense in humour of owning a smart, my mother has one and gets none stop stick in owning hers!!, if i got shopping to tescos with her, i keep expecting the anti theft brakes kick in as you leave the tesco parimeter red markers.!!
and plz tell me if your were not another sad person that waves to a passing by smart owner!
-
Phil, do you not wave at other GTi's......??
-
Its was my missus car for her to go to uni in and when I drove it I did not have time to wave to anyone!
Good fun though but it needed an ESP off switch!
I had a CL500 at the time!

:shocked: :shocked: :shocked: :shocked: :shocked:
-
how long do u need to run them in for?
-
1000 miles according to the handbook... and I do as the handbook orders even though it hurts :cry: :cry:
-
I bet thats tough, notbeing able to give it some welly when you first get it.
When I bought my first car, my Mark 2 Driver, the fella who was selling it bought it as a run around until his Subaru came. It was the proper STI Pro-drive thingy and when he was running it in he wasnt allowed to take it past 4000rpm, and had an electronic limiter set by the dealer so that he couldnt take it above even if we wanted to.

Its bad :sick: :sick: :sick:
