Is it like this one?

Smart ForFour Brabus (http://www.autoscoops.be/autoforum/viewtopic.php?t=11507)

At least you've made your mind up and it doesn't look so bad as some of the smart range. Some of them are so ugly it makes them funky. Hope you have lots of fun in it. Do owners modify these cars or is it fast enough for you as it is? :D:D:D:D

Yep, that's the one the boot is a lot larger than the MINIs, there's a sliding rear seat and you can also change the angle of the rear seats. The boot is very deep and doesn't narrow at the top.

Crombers, it doesn't seem to handle as well as the MINI, but that might be because you sit quite high up. The grip is very good, still learning it's limits.

Sheilz, I doubt you could or would want to boost the power. The car weighs less than a MINI (I think) and there's 177bhp (Cooper S has 170) on tap which comes in with great waves of torque. 0-62 comes up in just 6.9 seconds.

Nah not my car, no internet at the moment so can't upload pics. Mine is the same only with a UK plate, the steering wheel on the correct side, Sat Nav, Auto lights and wipers..... oh and a pain of a Border Collie barking his head off in the back as he knows we're taking him to the kennels for doggy day care ;)
