m3dan Posted September 12, 2006 Report Share Posted September 12, 2006 We used to run a load of Smarts as company cars, most of which have since died due to engine failier, some of which are just still sitting out the back of my warehouse. I'm sure the directors are now that sick of the things that they would be happy to give me one for free. So how much for 1000cc bike engine and the conversion, do you reckon? I see a ludicrously fast novelty toy for nearly no money. Please somebody burst this bubble before I do something silly.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedRobin Posted September 12, 2006 Report Share Posted September 12, 2006 Regardless of their performance etc, I really detest the look of Smart cars....Probably as much as Smitten detests 1-series Beemers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m3dan Posted September 12, 2006 Report Share Posted September 12, 2006 Yep, just confirmed with a director - I can have one for nothing....... Oh dear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedRobin Posted September 12, 2006 Report Share Posted September 12, 2006 I can honestly say that if I was given one for nothing it would be up for sale immediately! And if I couldn't sell it, I'd give it away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

v15ben Posted September 12, 2006 Report Share Posted September 12, 2006 Either a 1000cc GSX-R lump or possibly a Hayabusa engine if it will fit. The alternative is to fasten two normal Smart engines together and have a 1.4 V6 Twin Turbo unit. That definitely fits into the car and would scare the be-jesus out of most people. You can get 0-60 in 4.5 and 130mph top end if you fettle the car in the correct way. I think at that speed however I'd watch from outside the car or probably on the video of excess speed prior to impending doom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
