Another Smart, this time a Cab!

[MarkM]

Just traded my trusty old 09 passion coupe for this 2014 Grandstyle turbo cabrio, never had a soft top before, I'm not totally convinced about this open top motoring malarkey but Emma loves it
Already fitted my paddle shift steering wheel, need to get it activated and get my 818 plate transferred

Looks like a child's A-team van, looks like an absolute hoot to drive

Depends whether your now of age to own a wool cardigan or still rocking those gold chains

I like it, but holy hell they are small!

 

[corsacj]

You couldn't not smile driving that! Looks fantastic.

You forget how small they are until you park beside something like a Range Rover Plenty of room inside though although the boot isn't as usable as the hard top one

Makes me smile anyway

Lol, They really don't feel small driving them, we had the old one down to Gumball in Dublin a few weeks ago, sit 80-90 on the motorway happy enough, you should drive one

I'd look like donkey kong in one of them hahah

Looks class, nice colours an all! I still really miss my old one, I'd have another in a heartbeat if I was commuting to work again!

Can even get a washing machine in the boot.....try getting one in yours @Brennan

Not much you can fit in the boot of an Audi. Its deep but very shallow

 

[Chris Mac]

I always enjoyed mine!

 

[MarkM]

Got home early, the pipercross filter I ordered turned up so fitted it and thought I'd take it a quick spin round the estate to make sure it was ok, two hours later via country roads round Antrim/Dunady I'm home, top down, sun out, I'm liking this a lot more than I really should lol

Would I have seen this in Antrim asda on Thursday evening? Was one identical to this. It caught my eye as what ever angle I first saw it from I thought it was parked in the trolly park.lol

[big-lew18]

It looks well. Never see a cab version before

Health to drive. Next time George and I attend a local protest event, we'll pop over to yours for a spin.

 

[MarkM]

Thanks, I think Does this one offset the 'manliness' enough? Never confused lol

 

[MarkM]

2nd mod done, cut down the 'RC car' aerial by about 14" as it was ridiculous

 

[MarkM]

I mod, therefore I am....read diseased therefore I'm skint

Sill trims

Brabus hand brake handle, wasn't after one but this one came up really cheap

Oe mirror gets in the way so got one off a 106

Wind deflector to keep what's left of my hair in place

Had this last week when mine was in getting a new head unit and the steering wheel coded, properly **** compared to mine, dog slow and unbelievably uncomfortable
