It's in metallic blue with black wheels, roof and mirrors - best colour combination I've seen - the looks are highly dependent on that. I guess the Smart Roadster is in the same mould in terms of fun factor
...and you could argue the mostly solid dependability of your Volvo affords you the chance to have a hobby car too!

Yes the Smart Roadster is go kart like in its handling. It's only 800kg with a 80 horses turbo 3 cylinder motor pushing along from behind.
Put it on a twisty road and it's a match for many a more powerful vehicle.
