smartroad's 2003 smart roadster

Here is my Smart Roadster. Recent mods include a ReMap that should enable the engine to pump out around 100bhp (approx 126bhp per ton) and a performance air filter from SW Exclsive. Sometime I will get the car dyno'd and check on the actual power output.

Found out that my car was used by smart as a test car for journalists and from the date on the car suggests that it is one of the first right hand drive cars off of the production line.

The rear boot rack is powder coated and matched to the black of the tridion, rather then the rubbish matt grey (oops silver) that it was supplied in.

In October 2006 took the car onto a track at the Haynes Motor Museum. Had a great day and although the track is small 1.2km (3/4mile) it is twisty and that is what the Roadster likes, not straight line speed.

On Google there is a video of the track day,

Hi smartroad, nice to see another yella on here. I'd like to say I wish I had one of them but I already have!
Good choice

Looks like a fun car to drive, very different. What kind of gas mileage does one of those get?
