The SMART FORTWO (2012-15) 2DR COUPE 0.8CDI DPF 54 EU5 PULSE SOFTOUCH AUTO5 is a two-seat city car, rather than a family hatchback. Its shape is made for crowded streets and tight parking, giving it a place in the UK used-car market. The Pulse trim and automatic transmission add convenience. Mycarcheck.com recorded 234 look-ups across 82 distinct VINs, a useful snapshot of shopper interest. The cars checked averaged 64,000 miles, around 5,000 miles a year, and nearly four previous keepers; the average private-sale valuation was £3,400. These figures describe the vehicles checked, not a guarantee of condition or price. This diesel Fortwo suits drivers, couples and commuters who value easy parking and low use over rear seats or luggage space. Its footprint sets it apart from rivals such as the Toyota Aygo and Fiat 500, which offer more seats. The Fortwo’s two-seat layout and city-friendly character are its appeal.
