BMW vs Mercedes - Smart

Today, a costumer came to swap his BMW 300 (Isetta) for a Smart (Mercedes).

He told me it really would be an upgrade:

BMW: 1 door, Smart: 2 doors
BMW: 2 vipers, Smart: 3 vipers
BMW: 3 wheels, Smart: 4 wheels
BMW: 4 speeds, Smart: 5 speeds

Greetings to Winnetou - this BMW looks like yours?

Good that he got a smart but I think he may regret giving up the Isetta. Do you know what will happen to it?

That may have been a mobility upgrade but they took a financial bath to do it.

I would have kept the Isetta. One could house both the Isetta and the Fortwo in the same one car garage. I would use the Fortwo as the daily driver and the Isetta for special occasions.

Not bad - $14,000USD if my conversion is right.

Mayby it seems expensive, but in Denmark cars pay a registration tax up to 180%, so the prices cant be compared. We just sold the another little car, Heinkel Trojan for 47.000 kr. For Denmarks price level, the BMW is not expensive at all, and it is really economic, you can go 100 km with less than 3 liters og petrol. It will be difficult to find a more modern car with such a low2 consumption.
