Not really a maintenance issue I know but still car related:
We have a Smart Car, one of the 'old' shaped ones (before the jokes start, we wanted something to tow on a trailer and it is ideal for that, plus we like it).
I've just run into the first problem due to its size and luggage capacity- I can't get my beach caster fishing rod in it! I have other rods I can use but I would really like to be able to carry the beach caster- just for short runs from campsites to the beach (which would normally be near will pick them for proximity- say under 10 miles.
A simple roof rack would be ideal. As it happens, I've looked for a Smart car roof rack before for something else and couldn't find one. I solved that problem another way.
Has anyone ever seen a Smart Car roof rack? Load capacity isn't an issue- a couple of fishing rods is all I'll be carrying- although I may fix a short antenna to it.
I want a rack or bars, not one of those bag things- they look dodgy.
