So you get to the airport Hire Car Desk with a little excitement and a little trepidation.
Which way will it go?
Will they have had a mad rush and only have the convertible Bentley left?
Will they give you an MPV version of a Tuk-tuk and try and claim it is a golf equivalent?
Or will it be sensible basic transport which is fine for a few days?
It appears I have been given the starship Enterprise.
A Toyota Auris, specifically, the 'Full Bells And Whistles' edition.
First message- 'no phone connected- add a phone'
Done. Then it starts playing music from my phone when I accidentally hit a button on the steering wheel. But it's music from my phone. Ok, just found. Bluetooth streaming.
Plug phone in to charger and charger in to socket. Arse starts getting warm. Ok, heated seats button accidentally pressed.
Get to car park, in reverse, pop, there's the rear camera on the display showing me I'm miles away from the wall I miss by millimetres, bloody fish eye lenses.
Now the big question. There is a button suggestion that IT WILL PARK ITSELF.
I can't be arsed to put the entire Danish manual in to Google translate, so do I try it or not? :fuelfire:
 
Have some fun. I always blag an upgrade car and immediately put the system into English and then play.

360 camera system was the best so far this year and just wanted to park in silly places to see it all work...
 
If its like my focus that parks its self, its quite fun but rember it obly does steering no braking lol

Quoted, just in case it all goes t*ts up and you delete your post :P
it seems even deka's avatar chimp is giving me the hint.
Bit too dark to film it now, so I'll have a go in the morning.

Its good to know the same stuff happens all around the world btw.
Just been in to the Netto round the corner from the hotel, and there was a drunken woman trying to stash stuff in a big overcoat in the confectionery aisle.
 
Since you mentioned the word "manual" I'm assuming you are a woman. You therefor have need for this button, PUSH IT! :fuelfire:

I knew the manual was going to be in gobbledygook, so safe in the knowledge that I couldn't read it, I checked. Which is the manly thing to do :P
Off to chop some wood now.

Woke up an hour late this morning, forgot to change phone time so didn't get a chance. will try it after work, assuming its not dark.
Still in two minds though
 
Crap. Finding someone who is parallel parked round here is impossible.
There's massive empty car parks everywhere.
Seriously, the only thing bigger than their car parks is the pizza I just got from the takeaway.
Note the passport for scale.......
