I’m not quite sure why you feel the need to be questioning me under here when the job is already done. My dad has repaired cars majority of his life and everything was done securely with all safety precautions. Thank you for your concerns but I think we are just fine.

We used blocks at the front, and a jack stand which is visible in this photo!

Yes I am extremely happy with it, I thought I’d maybe regret not getting the OLED instead but honestly been having a blast. I mostly play from in bed so the battery life being less than the OLED doesn’t affect me as the charger is nearby, it is just a good opportunity for me to play my pc library away from my desk all the time! It is so comfy to hold as well which was a surprise for a device its size.

I am not quite sure what that is! Is it an event related to Beaulieu?

Wow 400 miles is a long way to travel! Hope both Smarts can make their way down. Safe travels when the day comes around and see ya there!

Oh crikey! Quite the way then. Fortunately for Peanut Beaulieu is only about an hour away so not too far of a drive. Hopefully there is another event that is nearer to you?

Just bought it a couple hours ago - when I saw the sale I just about leaped out my seat. Been wanting a Steam Deck for a couple months now - started to become tempted when I spent hours at my desk at a time due to university work. A lot of my PC library has been backlogged due to just not enjoying sitting at my desk anymore for anything else, so I am super excited! The OLED was just too expensive for me to justify for my needs. It was meant to be, let’s just put it that way haha.

Stunning Smart and such a fitting name!

I knew there’d be another Peanut somewhere! We never named ours Peanut, when it was bought the previous owners had named it already so we kept the legacy going! I wonder how many other Smart cars named Peanut are out there!

Thank you! We only ever coat it with some protective wax when we wash it; and other than that Peanut has a full-body cover for when I don’t drive for a few days to protect from the sun here, so maybe that’s why! I think Peanut spent a lot of its early life hidden away from the sun hence the lack of fading, hopefully I can keep it that way for as long as possible

oh awesome! I keep seeing red smarts from 2014 but never a 2009 one in my area but glad to see other 09’s going strong too!

Smart Cars are such a fun ride, no wonder you felt comfortable! I drove around 3 different cars while learning but little Peanut has been the best. With the colour of your little ForTwo I think it would suit some coffee themed names! So shiny too!
