For Sale Smart car re-raffle thread!!

[Jams]

Hello all

 

The time has come to move on my little smart car

I won the car in a raffle of the gentleman Mr ritchard K

It's now your turn to be the envy of everyone on the planet*!!!

 

Do you want to spend £19 on a full tank of petrol?

Do you want cheap insurance?

Do you want a LHD car?

Do you want a babe magnet*?

Want to ball on a budget? (Google it)

 

Step rite up as this is what you need!!

 

Smart 450 88000km from new with a bit of history It's had many pounds thrown at it its got a proper sump and a few niggles have been sorted by its former owners.

 

Engines great it has plenty of power drives well just serviced and 12 months mot!!!

 

Yes I've wrapped it matt grey yes it's got pressed plates and yes it looks cool as fuck* (it was sodding yellow!!) Yes it's got a boost gauge* (needs connection)

 

I like it and I'm sure others do! You can replace the plastics if you don't.

 

What more do you want for 500 quid?

Or 10 pounds a ticket? The extra will be donated to the running of the forum if that's ok with the big man?

I absolutely hated those when they came out... Nowadays, I find them cool ! I am probably* losing my mind !

 

 

Does anyone know if an early Smart like this is eligible for classic insurance ?

Where are you again?

[Fat_Pirate]

3 randoms please.  I was going to have 4 but I need to budget for a big tin of orange paint.

It is nearly 20yrs old so I don't see why not. Gotta be worth a call to find out.

[barmatt]

Swmbo just saw this and really likes the look of it and I think it would be hilarious* to tow it behind the CF camper when we go away but alas I have not got a spare monkey to buy it outright just now so a couple of randoms for me please.

 

Where is it btw?

[Sigmund Fraud]

It is nearly 20yrs old so I don't see why not. Gotta be worth a call to find out.

 

I rang FJ to ask, but they won't cover it as it's "too new". I was tempted to explain it's older than the 15 year old Alfas that they do accept to cover (or the brand new Morgans they also cover) but there was no point.

 

So I'm afraid it's GLWTS/GLWTR from me.

4 and 26 please!

So this has made me think to have a look at quotes but no insurance company can find the car, it's on the mot database though if you put it in as a smart but not on the gov website, weird!

 

Can the op tell us what it says on the v5 for make and model please?

[SiC]

According to totalcarcheck it's:

Manufacturer: Daimler Benz Smart

Model: Not Available

Colour: Black

Vehicle Type: Not Available

Fuel Type: Petrol

Engine Size: 599cc

 

[Jams]

It's insured as a smart pulse LHD 1998 the reg will bring nothing up on there computers

[Jim Bell]

It looked great in yellow. Now its grey. Minus one million points.

[dollywobbler]

It looked great in yellow. Now its grey. Minus one million points.

 

I agree, though you could always cut off bits of grey to leave the yellow visible. That would definitely* look cool. Or maybe a bit Dyson...

[Kiltox]

One random please!

[dean36014]

A random for me please

[Jams]

Each to there own sir.

[NorthernMonkey]

Grey is good. Certainly up there with yellow. On that basis, number 39 please, squire...

[Jams]

Will update the thread with people's numbers tonight on laptop

 

With regards to the colours it may not be your choice to your liking or offends you etc it's a wrap that will come off with heat and show its faded yellow glory

[flat4alfa]

Can you make it go crinkly?

 

I've always wanted a crinkly car

[flat4alfa]

I had the same comptersaysno excitement from FJ with my 21 year old Rover.

 

However, despite repeated knockbackage from the lass on the phone (and the 'underwriter' sitting next to her she had to keep conferring with), I found away around this...

 

It was to make sure you value the car at over £1000 and use the online quote facility instead.  Now that got the Rover accepted.  So I bought the policy and then rang in to make the adjustments.
