The SMART FORTWO (2012-15) 2DR COUPE 0.8CDI DPF 54 EU5 PASSION LUXURY SOFTOUCH AUTO5 is a tiny two-seat city car, aimed at drivers who value easy parking and low running costs over space. In the UK it fills a niche, smaller than conventional hatchbacks, with luxury trim and Softouch controls. mycarcheck.com checks record 402 look-ups across 190 distinct VINs, offering a substantial snapshot of this model. The average private-sale valuation is £3,500, with average recorded mileage of 67,000 and annual mileage of 6,000. Examples have had about four previous keepers on average, making a history check especially worthwhile before purchase. Its compact footprint suits solo commuters, couples and first-time city drivers, but the two-seat cabin and limited luggage space are less practical for families. The 0.8-litre diesel is designed for economical everyday travel; the Fortwo’s tiny turning circle, distinctive styling and Softouch transmission give it character few rivals can match.
