The Canada one is now sold, to Mani in Vancouver, Mike please revise the registry. Alan

Looks like it will be going Mani in Vancouver He already has a night run and is excited about adding the Canada one to his fleet. Alan

Still like them too. We are both retired now and are thinking we should get a condo in the lower mainland close to the grand kids. So if we keep the smart it would need to live out at the farm in Saskatchewan, I hate to think of what the gravel roads would do to the engine bay and intercooler. Will probably put it on facebook market place soon. All the best.

Thinking of parting ways with the Canada one. We haven't driven it for a two years and are in the process of down sizing. Current kilometerage is around 67k. would come with the original black Brabus wheels and the three spoke ones shown in the pictures. Just thought I would post it up there to see if anyone is interested. MY06 smart fortwo BRABUS - VIN # 6J287593 - Exterior Paint Color Clarifi....pdf

Washed and waxed the canada one. Bought a new battery and pulled the fuses to the park lights. Maybe I will get that sorted this year, Car is now sitting at 67,000kms.

Hi Im farming in Saskabush but will be back in Vancouver on the 30th but sadly without the Canada one. Thank you for the invite. Alan

Well that didn't work. left the battery disconnected for a month. lights come on when reattached. will try to post a video. Alan https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/i1hpovc8ej2naabw6tytq/IMG_8833.MOV?rlkey=z72duqntn03wufqv5ehxi6bdn&st=in6vvvuw&dl=0

will try that as soon as I am home again. thanks

Hi All The battery maintainer quit working while the Canada one was stored for the winter. Of course the battery went completely flat. When I realized what was going on I charged the battery and started the car drove up and down the street to get the engine warm. Now whenever I turn off the key, the park lights come on and stay on till the battery goes dead. Any help would be appreciated. Alan

If the car has been sitting for awhile it could be that your alternator has seized. Just a thought. Alan

About fuel additives. I used Howes for years and found that it was hard to get any in the tank without spilling most of it down the side of the car. Someone on here showed me how to simply pour it into the end of the fuel nozzle at the pump before adding fuel no more spilling. what is considered the best additive currently, I have just been gifted a 45 gallon drum of Jet fuel so am looking for mostly higher lubricity and a cetane boost. Jet fuel has a lower cetane rating than diesel. Not wanting to hijack this thread so moderator please move it if it gets out of hand, Henry

Found it. 100-mpg-challenge-revisited-9922.html Henry

Welcome to the club. Im in the Surrey Langley area and am available to help. You will find your milage goes up dramaticaly if you keep the rpms below 2000, do a search for 100 mpg challenge. Alan

One has to wonder if there are any aftermarket 14" wheels out there that would fit the smart 3 lug axels. this would give more sidewall without changing wheel diameter

Hey Mike Still round and looking great. The C1 turned over to 66,000 this spring, Still feels and smells like a new car. Not bad for a 16 year old car.
