Practically perfect in every way....there's a time and (more importantly) a place for malarkey.

That depends on the car I suspect. Mine doesn't have one.Originally posted by Pondlife View PostThere's a little arrow on the petrol gaugeWhile you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'Comment

From the mail in 2010
Ford, Volkswagen, Toyota and Nissan all said their modern vehicles had such an indicator.
Vauxhall said all models built in the past two years have an arrow but added that the petrol cap always sits on the driver’s side in their vehicles anyway.
Audis and BMWs do not have an indicator as standard, but again say it is always on the driver’s side - except in BMW Minis.
Citroen and Peugeot do not have a graphic, and the cap can be found on either side of their cars. The manufacturers’ responses disprove another common, but mistaken, belief: that the cap is on whatever would be the passengers’ side in a car’s main market, so drivers could safely fill up from a jerry-can at the side of the road, away from passing traffic.
Our BMW does have the little indicatorComment

Maybe just apocrophyal, but I was once told that if you look at the little icon of the pump on your guage, then the side of the pump that the hose is on equals the side of the car that the filler is on.Comment
