Farewell Forfour!
« on: March 02, 2019, 05:11:10 PM »

After 7 happy years, I've regrettably had to say farewell to my much loved 1.1 forfour  :'(

Superb car & I certainly hope to rejoin the forfour owning community when I can!
For the last year of ownership i removed the rear seats & actually used the smart as a mini van for gardening equipment...see below picture! Eventually I had to get a "real" van & wasn't able to keep the two vehicles.

Many thanks to the help this forum & members has given me, especially with the how to guides, advice on TVA issues (the open & close bonnet trick worked wonders every time!) & of course those great stickers!! ;D

How much can you fit in a forfour... a lawnmower, tools, & 3 garden bins!


Farewell smarty...


Best Wishes to all!  :)
