Does it have three tail lights on each side in the rear? Most likely with that year model it is a model 450. The 451's are a newer model typically sold in North America and have two tail lights on each side. Also, the 450's have a round air intake on the left rear aft of the driver's door. The 451's have a tear-dropped shaped one.

The air grill just below the windshield on the driver's side is removable. Use a coin or a wide blade screwdriver, the water reservoir is just inside. Evilution will provide details.

Here is a site with Smart car manuals, brochures and files. I do not know if it helps but the site is really nice.
