Used Smart fortwo for Sale

When I decided to get a new vehicle (because my previous vehicle became inoperable) I didn't have much money to expend on a new one. I decided to lease a 2013 Fortwo from Mercedes. This was due to the fact that the cost of doing so was so low and also because this car gets great gas mileage. I'm 5ft 10 inches tall. And I was surprised how much room it had inside for such a small car. It was very comfortable on the inside and it had an automatic transmission but, I also could change gears if I wanted as well. I prefer automatics myself. I love the car!

What I like most about this car is it's size. One can maneuver very well in city traffic, and park just about anywhere. I also love the look of the car. Also, it you have a minor fender bender, and have an hour to spare, it is very cheap and easy to swap out a damaged panel yourself. It has a nice, sporty appearance, even though the engine is governed at 100 mph. It is very comfortable for my wife, me, and some of our larger friends, but there does reach a point where a husky fellow may feel a little too "cozy". Over all, it had plenty of room for my daily needs, and one can fit a surprising amount of cargo in the trunk, and a cabrio is a must because larger objects can project through the rear, or the top of the vehicle. One major issue is blind spots. For such a small car, the cabrio w/the top up has just about the worst blind spots on both sides I have ever experienced, but this can be remedied by setting the side mirrors wider than one would on a normal car. It has never been in for anything more than a key reassignment, but that was very expensive, as was the dealer oil changes. It is a Mercedes after all, and at least you only have to take it in once a year, or 10,000 miles. of course if one does their own maintenance, or gets work done at a local shop it is actually cheaper than the average sub-compact.

The Smart car is an inexpensive two-seater car that has a lot of mechanical flaws. The automatic shifting in the car was not well made, therefore, there is constant jerking when accelerating and decelerating. The car has repeatedly had issues starting and has left me stranded three times. Upon inspection at the dealership, it was determined that there was a "computer programming error." These multiple issues all occurred during the three year lease period on my vehicle. On the positive side, the inside held up during three years of wear and tear, and, it costs around $20 to fill up the tank.
