(from smart Press
Release) Thirteen proves lucky for smart
How many people can you fit into a diminutive smart fortwo?
The amazing answer is 13 following a car cram staged to help
celebrate smarts 10th anniversary. Owners and visitors to the
annual smart Destination Brooklands event held at Mercedes-Benz
World, the UKs leading automotive brand experience centre at
Weybridge, were invited to take up the smart-packing challenge.
With the drivers and passengers of 1,200 smarts attending the event
there was no shortage of potential participants but the winners
proved to be the aptly-named smart car-tortionists, a group of
body-bending specialists chosen for their gymnastic feats. They
included Iona Luvsandorj, semi-finalist in this years Britains Got
Talent TV series.
With remarkable flexibility, a total of 13 contortionists managed to
climb aboard the micro smart which measures just 2.7 metres long by
1.6 metres wide, proving that the fortwo is small on the outside and
big on the inside.
Said Iona afterwards: The interior of the smart is tardis-like and I
think we exceeded the crowds expectations of how many people we
could fit inside it.
