Hello.

I am new to the Smart community.  I have just purchased a 2006 Smart fortwo.  My Question is, is there any specific warranty I should purchase to avoid any extra expense within the upcoming year.  The fortwo has 98,000 kn.

Thank you for any pointers..

It's ten years old and I would be surprised if you could buy a warranty for it.  Don't bother trying.

 

Do the external relay modification for the low beam headlights and fuel lift pump as described in the operations/maintenance and how-to forums.  If you can't do it yourself, pay someone to do it.  It shouldn't cost more than $200 to pay someone to do this quick job.  Apart from that, put aside half of what you paid for the car in a repair account.  Most likely you won't need it, but at this point in the car's life it's better than trying to buy a warranty, which would be full of exclusions if you could get one.

Good afternoon Mike T.

I thank you for taking your time to give me a  little insight.  I have never been overly interested in spending good money on extended warranties. I will take a look at the two above points.

 

Thanks again.

Dwayne
