    Obviously that only applies to a manufacturing business and they're all in China. Or they may as well be....

        What do you think?
        They are fun to drive, but don't let that make you think they're fast or can go round corners quickly, a 2CV can do that better.

          Meanwhile little wee whizzy 'Smartie' pants just zips right in there, snug as a bug on the rug, without a second's thought, whilst you move off in a bad mood spending the next 15 mins trying to find somewhere else?
          That's not a problem. If you find two ( or three ) Smart Cars in a space that would fit your car, you just drive over them.
