If you are a petrol head, you will be wanting a Roadster or a Brabus. ForFour then! -
id love a Brabus, just unsure what to look out for and reliability etc.....Comment
-
Which model were you particularly looking at?
the 451 is the 'current' shape, the 450 is the old shape smarts.
In retrospect, I suppose "supercalafragalisticexpialadocious" wasn't a great "safe word..."Comment

The Brabus is far more reliable than any other across all models. As others have said though, smarts come in all shapes and sizes! Sent from my iPhone using TapatalkComment

I have both (Brabus 450 & Roadster-Coupe) and previously had two other 450s. The 450 is a nice car - for what it is - but it just does not compare with the Roadster for driving satisfaction.Originally posted by S700TRB View Post
There is a Roadster buyer's guide available here: http://www.theroadster.net/trc/modul...cle.php?id=162Originally posted by zimzimmer View Post
As a rule, the engines are only a pain on the non-Brabus 450s. The engines fitted to Brabus 450s, Roadsters, ForFours & later 451s are all much more reliable (451 mhd excepted).Comment
