owned mine for 11 years now, at last, someone who gets the point about this car!!! very well done. greetings from Portugal
Recently bought a remapped brabus coupe version puts out about 131 hp now... not back breaking but wow... such fun! Cornering is improved due to the wheel and suspension tweaks... just a shame about the leaking issues. Definitely a 'garaged until sunny' kind of vehicle. Great toy... at a reasonable price!
Well done Lawrence. I've had ... I wont bore...lots of serious sport cars. Simultaneously, I've kept one of these at holiday home in warm place. It's 13 year old I've had it 8 years, it's never let me down, it's my favourite car of all time. I thread this thing at speed on smooth very twisty roads in the mediterranean, It's brilliant. If you can't get to grips with the robotic auto and paddle shift..get another hobby, coz you ain't no good. Comparisons with the Elise are reasonable but this is better made and much more comfortable...it is something you can use every single day. Now I'm looking for it to be made over completely, because I love it and I've mistreated it but it just keep coming back, smiling, for more. Wonderful B road sportster.
You nailed it. Just the reasons I bought one 7 years ago and still have it.
Beauty is in the eye though.....
c perks I keep seeing owners say this, I've had mine for 3 years with no intentions of getting rid, it's never missed a beat and I still love it, yet another reason why I think they will go up in value
It's great to see a recent review of this car. I bought a coupe version 6 months ago and just wish I could find more roundabouts and windy roads to drive it on! Great value at only £3100 (11 years old in 2017). Its been very reliable so far. If you look to buy one, lift the carpet behind the seats and check for a puddle of water, or signs of significant damp.
I would love to see them do another one as an EV now. To really show off how fun electric is when it’s in a car like this. I think it’d be so much fun.
one of the best reviews of a roadster thanks
Thanks for your review. I have used it for deciding get a second hand Roadster. Regards from Spain!
I adore these little cars, I think they look stunning in Coupé form and the Brabus is a supercar killer in corners plus it's rather rare.
Sehr schönes Video, danke dafür. Das beste Auto, das ich je hatte. Mein kleiner ist nun schon 19 Jahre und 120 000 km alt. Bisher war nur eine Lambdasonde defekt. Seit vorigem Jahr geht das Fahrerfenster nicht mehr richtig. Das ist alles in all den Jahren! Sonst nur Spaß, vorallem in Kurven. Grüße nach England, greetings from Germany
Good review I have the Brabus model with a 120bhp its great fun to drive and still get around 47mpg
Great review, if the looks of the roadster puts anyone of there’s always the coupe version, a remap taking them up to just over 100 BHP makes all the difference, if you want a Smart roadster in your life when buying get it checked out before parting with the cash there probably one of the most reliable cars you can own, but there getting old now better to pay a bit more for a good one.
Great review thanks!
Professional level review. Good job
I really enjoyed this review. I did fancy one of these as a runaround/weekend car but I now live in Canada where these things are pretty much banned I think. I feel the Coupe has much, much better styling at the back. One day i might be able to take one for a spin.
Very fair, however you do get kind of used to the gearbox. You have to plan ahead a bit.
Am thinking of buying one very soon I found one for £1500 and seeing this vid just make me won't it more look like a really fun car and cart wait to get one
Hi
Did you buy one in the end? I’d so, how has it been? Hope you’ve had lots of fun!
I’m thinking of buying one for the fun factor soon 😃
Pena que não tem no Brasil triste 😢
good review, but most annoying music ever when you have headphones on
just get an mr2 mark 3 better in every way possible
