Wife found the site and ordered the bag. I will ask her what site she used to order. Bag Lady also makes all sorts of custom lady's fashion hand bags. Smartie bag was $36. Bag Lady is a real person !
You need to be under 5'10" for the tire to fit in the well. Allow about 6.5"
Here's a pix with the boot cover in place. Spare does not interfere.
I have found a nearly new set of four, nine spoke aluminum wheels. I want the two rears. Would anyone like to make me an offer on the front two, or each. I did check with the local (HA! 135 miles away) dealer and wheels are about $850 each, retail, so your offers have to be between free and $850.
Any of you Pure owners out there want to start an upgrade? Anyone with a Passion want to buy a rim for a spare and pick-up a local tire?
The parts guy at my dealer quoted me $895 each for rears on the phone. Now he could have been thinking in the Mercedes world and figured that things sell for cost times 10, but I doubt it when I look at the cost of other smart accessories.
OK, aluminum wheel price update: I called two other dealers and they both said the prices were $317 each and as I expected my local dealer was "confused". So I bought two rears and in the next few weeks should have an extra front available.
I'll be back in Germany next week, one of my plans is to visit the local garage that has a few old smarts sitting around. Perhaps I can purchase a used rim from the old gent and bring it home with me. The ultimate souvenir from Europe.
