The Smart Roadster and Roadster Coupé were introduced in 2003, based on a stretched Fortwo platform. The two variants are meant to be reminiscent of British roadsters such as the Triumph Spitfire or the MG B.
First registered in 2003, this early LHD Roadster was purchased new from Smart Mercedes UK and now shows less than 5, 000 miles from new
Used for the first year as a weekend toy, the vehicle was then put into a private collection where it has remained until now and is now offered fresh from recommissioning
Powered by a 698cc turbocharged 3-cylinder producing 81bhp, with rear-wheel drive via a six-speed automated manual transmission with paddle shift
Finished in Jack Black, and highly specified with heated black leather interior, it sits on upgraded16-inch Spikeline alloys
Supplied with older invoices, original book pack, service book and current MOT (no advisories)
A low-mileage example of an esoteric modern classic, this early Smart Roadster would be a welcome addition to any collection
