UK Road Tax Question

Lazy bit of research -
We're looking at buying a Smart "FourTwo" car, to use while we're living between the UK and France, just to use locally around where the in-laws live. The car has a 700cc petrol engine and I just wondered if anyone on here might've owned, or know, off hand, what the road tax is on them?
I have tried to use the Government Road Tax Calculator, but the model concerned is not on their drop down list. 🤷♂️
Cheers

I think it may be nothing, as any car below 1000cc has free road tax, but I could be wrong. We have a Toyota IQ2 which has 1000cc engine, and don;t pay any road tax...2

That could be why that model isn't on the drop down list then. Cheers mate0

Purchased a Ford Mondeo last year with the Eco-start option. Unawares, when i went to tax it, it said £20 for the year on the DVLA site. None the wiser, i thought i had taken the wrong options and had three goes at it before i sussed.
That's not bad, £20 for something you can turn off anyway!1
