    Hi,

    Any Smart Car Drivers on Boards?

    I'm thinking of getting a bunch of Smart Car drivers together for a Sunday Drive (a "rally"!)

    Please post below if you are interested....

    PS. I've also set up a Facebook page. PM if you want more details!

    Thanks for the interest!

    Haven't chosen a date yet - it will probably be in April.

    I've set up the Facebook page to get interest going and then I will choose the date.

    Once a date is chosen I will make an event page on FB.

    There are 2 Smart Cars in my vicinity. I will put a flyer on their windscreen about this & Facebook.

    Any pics of your car you want to put up on Facebook?

    Could try posting about it here, too. Few Irish members on the site.

    What Smart do you have, out of curiosity?

    Hi,

    Any Smart Car Drivers on Boards?
    As a matter of interest - why (almost) everyone call it a "Smart Car"? The car make name is simply - Smart.
    I like the concept of the car, just wanted to know what is the genesis of the "car".

    I guess it just sounds good. It goes together well - assonance or alliteration or whatever??

    25 followers on the Smart Car FB page.

    Looks like we should be able to get a few Smarts and their owners together for a meet up.

    Reckon it will be a good opportunity for some fun photos!

    It's looking like the date for the rally will be 30th of April.

    Does anyone know any Smart Car Drivers? We could really do with a few more people joining us on the Rally!

    A company in Cork called Cast Gates have one as a promotional vehicle. Might be worth a phone call to see if they'd come along? Pizza Plus in Cork also have a Smart.

    Thanks for the info.

    I see there are a lot of promotional companies who use Smart Cars - I think I will contact a few of them!

    Wish I could make it Amy (Áine's brother here from FB) - I'm gigging most of that weekend, but hopefully it'll be a blast!
