got wind of this site from posts by smartzuuk elsewhere and have yet to dive in and start reading, but it looks like there is quite a bit of information here. I have had my 2005 smart pulse for some 19 months now and just rolled over 100,000 k. The car is used primarily for the daily work commute and some weekend driving.
I look forward to learning more from those here.....
Too bad you're not close by. Talking with smartzuuk has got my interest piqued to have a closer look at a smart. Right province, wrong end of the big lake!
The differences that your diesel + semi-automatic sequential transmission mean for driving technique are interesting to learn about.
it looks like the new smart is going to be released in europe in the spring, but it looks like it takes a step backwards as far as fe is concerned as they are increasing hp in the diesel and offering bigger petrol engines (exclusively in the u.s. i think),
but still looks like an amazing car.
I decided to dump all my spritmonitor.de data in 'bulk' (combined into three entries only) so that I would get a lifetime number... I've only added daily numbers for Nov 1 and on.
