My 59 diesel passion has the choice of auto, or by pressing a button on gear lever it can be used as a sequential manual, but still no clutch.
I use it in auto always as I'm to lazy to use gear lever.
Some models differ to this.

All Smarts have an automated clutch, so even with the (manual) there is no clutch to operate. The Soft Touch gearbox is a manual in that you will need to select the gears up and down sequentially. This means that to change up, you move the gearlever forwards. To change down, you move the gearlever backwards.
The Soft Tip (standard on all Passions) is an automated version of the Soft Touch. With Soft Tip, you can press a button on the gearlever and all gear changing will be done for you. You can also press the button again to turn the gearbox into a manual (Soft Touch).

Unfortunately the Diesels are a little out of our price range. Now looking for a 2003 or newer Passion coupé or convertible with full auto and 700cc, I fancy the convertible, misses not so sure.
Maybe looking at one tomorrow but not sure about 700cc car with 72,000 miles on clock!!!
I heard of a bolt on attachment for smart cars a few years ago, basically a couple of brackets under the body, and a length of 75 x 50 rectangular section with a tow hitch on it, inserted under the car from the rear to make the Smart into a trailer.
