Glenryck Pilchards Posted June 21, 2009 Share Posted June 21, 2009 This is a very stupid question but I am going to ask it anyway. I am thinking of hiring a car when I am in spain later in the year, but on left hand drive cars is the clutch brake and accelerator in the same order as right hand drive cars? Â The pedals are the same, however the gears will feel different. For example for 1st gear you will need to pull the stick towards you and up, rather than push away and up. Â Thanks bud, does it take a while to adjust? Just wondering should I take 5 minutes in the car park to get use to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freaky Posted June 22, 2009 Share Posted June 22, 2009 Get an automatic. Â I did that when I went to America, and it makes life a lot easier - you'll be spending long enough getting you head around driving on the other side of the road, flipping everything around in your head and all the other malarky.

Moderators neil Posted June 22, 2009 Moderators Share Posted June 22, 2009 Good luck even trying to rent a car in America that isn't an automatic. Â It will be an automatic by default. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very true, but in Spain I assume you get a manual by default, so you probably have to specify that you want an automatic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Chest Rockwell Posted June 24, 2009 Moderators Share Posted June 24, 2009 Sounds like a good plan, bAz. The rest of your life seems to exist in a complete fantasy world anyway. Here you go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that right? Good one. I wish I was you. Â In all seriousness, was there any need for that? Only asked a question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Chest Rockwell Posted June 24, 2009 Moderators Share Posted June 24, 2009 Was there any need for your first question? It's something you could have found out much quicker by typing the same question into a search engine. Â Of course a smartass answer isn't required, but at least I didn't just go to the lazy "let me google that for you" riposte. I get marks for effort.

Paid Members Au Posted June 25, 2009 Paid Members Share Posted June 25, 2009 It's my mates birthday today and I've left it til the last minute to buy her a present. She wants some ER DVD's and they're currently a tenner on Play but Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Chest Rockwell Posted June 25, 2009 Moderators Share Posted June 25, 2009 You should be able to pass of the Play ones, because you'll have the HMV receipt from the ones you give her, right? Â If it works like that, then it's all good.. if they're somehow tagged with the store then obviously you're a bit stuffed. How much would they go for 2nd hand but unopened? If you'll end up taking a big hit on them then you gotta ask if it's worth the Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Au Posted June 25, 2009 Paid Members Share Posted June 25, 2009 Well, I'm probably going to buy 2 so I'd be saving about a tenner. Worth it, I reckon and I can always sell them through Play trade or Amazon marketplace if it doesn't work. Â I'm working on the basis that the ones from Play arrive shrink wrapped and I can just say I removed all the HMV related labels. Â I was mainly intrigued as to whether it would work, on top of my general scrooge-like money ethics so you've given me the incentive to give it a try!

Moderators Chest Rockwell Posted June 25, 2009 Moderators Share Posted June 25, 2009 Go for it! Â Check how they're packaged in HMV though.. is there an outer plastic, or are the HMV stickers directly on the shrink wrap? If the latter, it'd probably be best to remove the wrap entirely and make up an excuse as to why (eg bought it as a gift de-plasticked it to wrap it in paper and then found out that the person already had those DVDs) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
