But now that it's up and running she is so stunning. All black, lovely dark tints, Brabus body kit & alloys, various Brabus interior mods. The car literally came with so many extras!!! And it's been de-badged, rear quater windows replaced, roof polished, side trim and door handles sprayed in gloss black... it really is quite something when you see it.

A while ago I remember showing interest in another SB3 but I dodged a massive bullet and got something SO SO MUCH BETTER!  :)

As is with every car I have owned, I'm never quite happy with the stock audio setup and so replaced the speakers with 6.5" Vibe COAX, Pioneer head unit with steering wheel controls and a reverse camera, Pioneer subwoofer with a separate amplifer. Also got a neat LED strip going under the dash for a nice glow when it's dark.

I commend you on the work, time and effort you have spent on your SB3  ;)

Hopefully as jmariog has said, we'll get to see it at the next Smart meet
at the Ace Café London on Saturday 12th April 2025.

I really hope we get a better turn out than at the last 2 meets at The Ace and Beaulieu.
