Bigger than you think

So, you think I might fit into one of those? I have little-car envy, and usually have to shop around to find even a regular car where I am not jammed in. At 6'6" (approx 2m), I completely relate to the guy's experiences before the car.

You would easily fit in there, if you have long legs. If you are tall when sitting, you may not. Next time you are in Europe try one for size.

Wie bringt man eigentlich die Reifen zum Wechseln? Oder bin ich nicht snobby genug, um zu merken, dass das die falsche Frage ist?

Bei uns passen vier Räder rein. Aber ich wechsle die selbst in 15 Minuten. So schnell kann ich nicht zum Händler fahren.

Die haben mich heimlich gefilmt ! :-) SIDE Hotel HH und sixti.de - smart für 5.- eur/tag....mein standardprogramm.....allerdings ist der noch 1-2 cm länger als ich ...schätze ich !

Wir bekommen die Reifen unserer Firmen Smarts auch problemlos in den "Kofferraum" des jeweiligen Fahrzeuges. Man kann dann zwar nicht mehr nach hinten sehen, aber das ist bei einem Smart auch unnoetig. Das Ende vom Smart ist da wo man seitlich gerade noch den Kopf hindrehen kann.

Es passt auch ein kompletter IBM 1HE Flachserver in seiner Orginalkartonage hinten rein. bei der 2 bzw 3HE Variante musste ich den Beifahrersitz komplett nach vorne klappen.

Ben, if Alexander fits then you will as well. Alexander is both taller and much larger than you are.

@Ben
My bother in law is 2,01 m and the smart fits pretty perfect for him. He loves the commodious and the distance to the window (as a result cab forward design) and has also a good view.
He is tall and also athletic with his 110kg. We were also able to transport a concept II rowing ergo (no, not driver & passanger & concept only driver & concept II).
