There are more Smart cars seen in Vancouver streets these days.

However, I saw one yesterday towing a trailer :?

It was small---not as small as those built for motorcycles--

Maybe its a Smart trailer. It was for carrying things, rather than for Smart people to camp in.

I'll be the first to ask, what are you selling?

I saw a Smart on the road the other day... in Salt Lake City... with Utah plates... how did that guy get it registered, is my question.

What makes you think I'm selling something :?:

Most of the Smarts I see seem to be used by Security firms.

Went to the British car show this morning, with a couple of hundred examples. It was held in a nice garden park.

There were two examples of what could be considered as the predessor of the Smart.

Austin 7 from 1929, which weighed 900 pounds, maximum speed of 45 mph and 40mpg.

Highlights were some MG-TCs, a 1958 ACE Bristol--the 6 cylinder car that Shelby stuffed a Ford V8 into and called it a Cobra.

Quite a few Lotus Sevens and the 1934 Ason Martin with cycle fenders
was outstanding. :D
