I think the F1 safety car is the only Merc I would drive.

Not yet no... But after October once I have my license and can afford the deposit which will probably be around December I will be buying one.  :lipsrsealed:

Im getting the cabrio version with the canvas roof that folds down. It has 74hp  :laugh:
Will get it remapped to 135hp once I get bored and find a dealer down here that will do it.

Top cat dont you even dare post a picture in relation to smart cars. I love those things and nobody will talk me out of one.  :kiss:

And before I lose whatever measly reputation I had I should mention that I have plans for the car that will probably cost me a lot of money and put the car off the road for a while.

Im thinking hayabusa sump...... 0-100 in 4,2 seconds sounds fun.  :kiss: :laugh:

If it turns out that it will cost too much I will just smile and leave the car standard. I travel over 100km a day. So need a car with good economy.

There is nothing you can say that can justify buying a Smart, nothing. Not even economy. you want Economy buy one of these Bluemotion things.

Im from SA. This is the most economical thing we get other than a scooter. Which i have already said no to.

I want one. And I will get one. They can easily be mapped to 130hp and with uprated injectors and a bit of tinkering you can get a lot of power out of them. They are also a lot safer than many of the cars here that have only just entered the market for similar prices new. Im going second hand.
