The SMART FORTWO (2003-07) 2DR COUPE 0.7 61 GRANDSTYLE AUTO is a tiny, two-seat city car, built for easy urban driving rather than family duties. Its short body and automatic gearbox make parking and stop-start traffic less daunting. In the UK used-car market, it offers a distinctive alternative to conventional small hatchbacks. mycarcheck.com has recorded 31 look-ups covering 19 distinct VINs, a useful but modest sample. The checks show an average private-sale value of £1,000 and average recorded mileage of 73,000 miles. Typical annual use is low, at 4,000 miles, while cars averaged just over five previous keepers, so check each car’s history carefully. The 0.7-litre petrol and compact footprint suit solo commuters, residents and drivers wanting a second car; it is less practical for passengers or bulky shopping. Grandstyle trim adds appeal, while its unusual two-seat layout distinguishes it from rivals such as the Toyota Aygo and Fiat Panda.
