Alsace 47°52'46"N 7°24'30"E | It is a SMART car. Came off the brains of the SWATCH watch mogul. Was intended to be electric powered and small enough to park crosswise instead of along the road, so that 2 could use a parking lot in the cities. It's inventor turned to Mercedes/chrysler to build it, and they made a spin-off. Has an excellent road behavior in spite of it's size. Is very popular as Pizza delivery car. Comes in various models: gas/diesel, 2/4 seater, hard/soft top & roadster Has a tremendous mileage, especially with the diesel engine Check on http://www.smart.com/is-bin/INTERSHOP.enfinity/WFS/mpc-uk-content-S... and for the introduction to the USA http://www.smartusa.com/ and here the canadian site http://www.thesmart.ca/index.cfm?id=4720
