Smart Canada Delivers Its 20 000th car.

Smart Canada announced yesterday that it has delivered more than 20,000 cars here since the launch of the brand in the fall of 2004.

To mark the occasion, Mercedes-Benz Canada President and CEO Tim A. Reuss met with the 20,000th customer, Mireille Piche, who purchased her red Smart fortwo coupe at Ogilvie Mercedes-Benz in Ottawa.

Mireille has been a fan of the car ever since she first saw the vehicle in Germany in 2002. As a recent graduate of Concordia University, she qualified for the Graduate Rebate Program and saved $500 off the purchase of her passion coupe. 

She was presented with a special congratulatory package that included:..........

•  A commemorative plaque,
•  Two nights' accommodation at the W Hotel in Montreal,
•  Tickets to visit a special Jean Paul Gaultier exhibit at the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts sponsored by smart Canada, 
• A set of winter tires courtesy of Ogilvie Motors, 
• $500 spending money, 
• $500 gas card - which should take Piche a long way given the car boasts low fuel consumption of just 5.4L/100km.

This was a wonderful occasion, not only for Mireille, but for a host of all other guests who turned up to witness this milestone. Congratulations Mireille Piche! Enjoy the all the gifts you got.
