Tut Tut! I guess you either love cars or hate them! I think sometimes I would rather stick knitting needles in my eyes than do some of the more "girlies things"! lol

[Problemchild]

Had a look on the smart fest site at the list of exhibitors and good mentions for smartmods and s2smarts but no mention for bigperformance - seems odd. I was gonna have a look over his stuff just to see what it's like. Oh well

You usually get £5.00 worth of food vouchers (included in your Smart Bag when you arrive)- I'd take extra cash if you plan on eating there as food at outdoor events can get expensive.

We've bought a couple of bits but nothing too major- depends if you're looking to buy parts etc!

I have found that there isn't too much related to the ForFour (obviously) but if you find something you want, grab it as it will be gone when you change your mind!

Just to let everyone know that I have printed some "Spotted Flyers" (managed to get 6 per page) and will be placing them on as many ForFours as I can when we decide to look in the car park at all of the Smarts - Promotion anyone?! LOL

[Timelord Mitchturbo]

Not much parts to buy for the forfour at the smart fest lol,
I've only seen a grill or two at previous years... 

[Problemchild]

You gotta think outside of the box guys..... Like will fortwo mudguards fit the forfour.... Can I adapt that roadie dash pod to fit on my a-pillar to hold a boost gauge

Is there a cash machine on site??

Do some sellers take cards/cheques/IOUs/paypal

JJ

[LadyV]

No cash point on site (that I know of)- take some cash!

good stuff trouble

i sent an email out across the destination smart domain about meeting before but i think most people are members on here and/or FFO

JJ

I saw and well done for correcting that dude! I thought that was a tad rude to comment on someone's post and ask that person if they had an opinion as to whether their car was "a real Smart"- what did they think I was going to say?! Hahahah!!
