Smart Fortwo or Forfour: which should I buy used?

The Fortwo is the shorter, for one or two people in town; the Forfour adds two rear seats, two doors and a bigger boot. From 2014 they share engines and gearboxes.

Is a used Smart Fortwo cabrio worth buying?

It keeps the coupé's size and engines with an electrically folding fabric roof. Check the hood for tears and the seals for leaks, and make sure it opens and closes smoothly.

Can a small Smart handle the motorway?

It can, but the short wheelbase makes it sensitive to crosswinds, and the 71 hp versions have little in reserve. For regular motorway trips, the 90 hp turbo or a Forfour is more comfortable.
