The Forfour was advertised as being like a living room in your car or something, so some presenters from the show Top Gear spent 24 hours in one. It was £££.

You know those MiniCoopers? A lot of people around here have them. I looked into it. A guy offerered me one (used but barely driven) for 16k. For such a tiny car I thought that was pricey.

You would not believe how roomy they are inside that. Up front at least.

smart are a funky concept born in Switzerland (yep misters), then sold to daimler-benz.

there are quite a few over here. it's quite interesting because they are really small and can fit everywhere in the city.

Meanwhile for the price you can just buy out a Japanese car fully accessorized, but they are just normal sized cars

police even use one around here (it's for the press service not interventions !)


brits too

I am guessing most of you Euro's don't drive nearly as much as some of us out here do. Especially in California. I put around 20-25 thousand miles a year on my ride. A car getting 80 MPG would pretty sweet for back and forth to work. Fortunately I will not be the first on my block to get killed driving one in SoCal.
