The tiny cars are everywhere here in Europe, but perhaps none is more interesting in it’s variety that the Smart car. Despite the diminutive size, they are surprisingly roomy and even come in a 4 seat version. However, I would never drive one…I mean I’ve seen them park in spaces usually reserved for 2 motorcycles. Perhaps the best version is the Police Smart, which I have actually seen drive through the park on a sidewalk, past the slides and out the other gate. Here is a little taste of just how Smart they are.
The Regular
The Adventurous
The Sport
The For Four (no kidding, it's called the "Smart for 4")
The Crime Fighter...

My favorite was one in Dallas I saw that was painted like the General Lee. Almost made it cool.
ReplyDeleteDo they have loud horns? I remember all the LOUD horn honking when we were in Italy and France, in particular.
ReplyDeleteAsk John about the Smart Cars for use in Austin -- a credit card activates their use; you find it on the street somewhere - drive it - park it and leave it for the next user. He and Margarita found one parked by their house and figured it might remain there for months and months -- wonder if it is gone yet?
