We have a Smart Roadster and have had it now for 13 years. Been totally reliable but yes it does leak from the area round the wing mirror on the drivers side.
What is this SAM unit and where is it located?

Howard, it's the electronic brain and is situated above the drivers legs. Nightmare if it gets wet. There's a local dealer in Surrey who specialises in these but he won't guarantee against leaking! Nick

Jimmy, there is a forum that is full of handy info and knowledgeable people. www.theroadster.net. We have had our roady for over 17 years it has never failed an MOT done 183,000 miles and owes us nothing. There are steps you can take to keep the inside dry (depending on how hard its previous life was!) as you can with a Mog (mine was dry after some neoprene and other approaches to plugging the holes by design.) Our roady is a little scruffy now as it's been to a lot of places had a lot of careless dings off other road users when parked up (mainly in France!) With the Brabus if it has the Brabus wheels avoid potholes like the plague, they are made from kitkat wrappers!

I have registered on theroadsternet it is very useful , the car doesn't seem to have a leak problem , most likely been inside most of its life it has only done 26K miles . I have had it checked at Smart Cars Scotland and all is well . I do have the Brabus wheels and can see the problem with the low profile tyres .Its now on SORN and will come out in the Spring .
