WHAT A GREAT FIND, THE LAST OWNER HAD THIS ROADSTER SINCE 2005, IT'S BASICALLY BEEN CHERISHED AND GARAGED ALL IT'S LIFE LOOKS THE PART IN THE CLASSIC COMBINATION OF JACK BLACK OVER BLACK. HAVING SOLD WELL OVER 150 SMART ROADSTERS TO FIND A 2 OWNER CAR WITH THIS NUMBER OF SERVICES IS TO SAY THE LEAST RARE. THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST LOOKED AFTER AND BEST MAINTAINED EXAMPLES I HAVE EVER HAD, SERIOUSLY IT'S GOT TO BE ONE OF THE BEST ONES LEFT. IF YOU NOW ROADSTERS THEN YOU WILL KNOW ABOUT THE POTENTIAL ISSUES, THIS ONE IS EXCEPTIONALLY DRY INSIDE, THE BODYWORK IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION, THE A/C PIPE IS INTACT AND NOT BROKEN LIKE 90% OF THEM ARE !, THE ROOF HAS NOT SHRUNK AND WORKS PERFECTLY, EVERYTHING FUNCTIONS AS IT SHOULD. IT HAS BOTH KEYS, ALL THE HANDBOOKS AND A THICK WEDGE OF RECEIPTS FOR ALL THE EXTENSIVE SERVICE WORK COMPLETED. BAD POINTS ?, ( AS EVERY CAR HAS SOME ), THE SUPER CHEAP ORIGINAL DOOR SPEAKERS NEED UPGRADING, AND THE WHEELS ARE DUE A REFURB/ FRESH POWDERCOAT, WHICH WE HAVE NOT YET DONE AS MANY OWNERS UPGRADE THEM TO TRACKLINE OR SPIKELINE WHEELS OR BRABUS. THESE LITTLE SMART ROADSTERS ARE JUST HUGE FUN, A TRULY AFFORDABLE MODERN CLASSIC THAT ARE STILL ONE OF THE BEST LIGHTWEIGHT SMALL ENGINED SPORTS CARS EVER MADE. IF YOU HAVE EVER DRIVEN ONE YOU WILL KNOW JUST WHAT A GREAT CAR THEY ARE, AND WITH SUCH LOW RUNNING COSTS THEY ARE ALSO A SUPER PRACTICAL AND FUN CAR. I'VE ALWAYS SAID THAT THAT WHEN IT COMES TO THESE ROADSTERS THERE ARE ESSENTIALLY TWO TYPES OF ROADSTERS, CHERISHED ONES OR TRASHED ONES, THIS IS CLEARLY ONE THAT FALLS INTO THE THE FORMER DESCRIPTION. IT'S A TOTALLY STANDARD ROADSTER 80 WITH THE CORRECT 15" SPINLINE ALLOY WHEELS, WITH FOLDING ROOF BUT WAS ALSO SPEC'D WITH THE POD CLOCKS AND AIR CONDITIONING. ALSO THE ORIGINAL OWNER SPEC'D THE CAR WITH ELECTRIC MIRRORS WHICH IS A REALLY USEFUL OPTION AS ROADSTER MANUAL MIRRORS ARE WELL KNOWN FOR BEING EASILY BROKEN AS YOU GET IN AND OUT, IT ALSO HAS THE VERY OPTION OF RARE FACTORY FRONT SPOTLIGHTS AND SIDE AIRBAGS. IT'S A REAL CRACKER AND ONE OF THE BEST I'VE HAD THE PLEASURE IN OWNING.
