Hi there I have a 2016 Auto with 75,000km on the clock, owned it since new almost 3 years in August.

  5. Gas Tank Fueling Problem on new 2016 smart

    453
    I just picked up my 2016 smart last week. I tried to fill it up twice at two different gas stations. Both times the pump kicked out way too early. I knew by the amount of fuel pumped that my tank wasn't at capacity and sure enough, when I started the car, I was still 1/4 tank shy of a full...

  6. Tiny cup holders!

    453
    I just got my 2016 Prime yesterday and quickly discovered that not one of my current water bottles fit the cup holders. Has anyone found one that fits? I saw one with the logo on Smart Madness that I like but it seems way too big at the base. Thanks!
