The SMART FORTWO (2012-15) 2DR COUPE 1.0 84 EU5 PASSION SOFTOUCH AUTO5 is a two-seat city car, not a family hatchback. Its compact shape and automatic transmission suit crowded streets, tight parking and short trips. In the UK, it stands out among the smallest petrol cars for its distinctive, upmarket character. mycarcheck.com records 25 look-ups across 13 different cars, a useful snapshot but not a huge sample. Checks show an average private-sale value of £4,300, average recorded mileage of 34,000 miles and around 3,000 miles driven yearly. The average keeper count is just over four, making a vehicle-history check worthwhile. The Passion version pairs a lively engine with easy driving, and its tiny footprint gives it a parking advantage over rivals such as Fiat 500 and Toyota Aygo. It is best for solo commuters, couples or first-time buyers who value convenience, but two seats and luggage space restrict family use.
