The Good, The Bad and the Ugly

We took a little trip yesterday to some shopping outlet my wife had heard about. Normally we would have gone in my BMW which has built in Sat-Nav, but of course we took the Smart instead. After some disagreements over navigation to the intended destination, I ended up buying a Garmin Sat-Nav while my wife browsed the other shops. So, hopefully that will put an end to the navigation problems :)

Given that we've had the car a couple of days now, some things are starting to emerge that you don't always realise on the test drive.

The Good : Still liking the paddle shift a lot! No problem keeping up with the 70 mph traffic.

The Bad : Wishing I had the glove box instead of the open shelf on the dashboard - so if you are ordering your Smart from the factory - I recommend the glove box!

The Ugly : We discovered that if you put your mobile phone on the dashboard too near the radio (when listening to the radio instead of CD or iPod) it causes interference! Solution is to put the drivers mobile phone on the shelf nearer the door and the passenger mobile phone in the door net! Never had this problem in my BMW though!
