We can’t believe we didn’t know this about our car!

Have you ever been  driving along in a hurry but you need to get fuel. You drive the car forward into one of the slots at the fuel station only to realise your tank fills up from the other side. Perhaps you have driven a friends or hire car and you’ve faced this problem again. There is a way to avoid this time waster.

On your dashboard where the fuel icon is, there is an arrow and this points to the side of the car where your tank is located. If you have an older model car the fuel icon may simply be located on the side closest to the door (left or right) as demonstrated below.
