Drove a Beetle today but had problem at the garage trying to fill up tank.
As the filler cap is virtually upright i just couldn't avoid spilling excess petrol left in hose from previous user all over the place as i tried to get nozzle into the filler flap.
The only other car i know that has filler caps like this is a Jaguar XJ or a motorbike.
Never owned either so whats the secret of filling these up without creating a fire hazard?
any ideas anyone?
me belly full but me still hungry..

With my bike I hold the nozzle upside down until it's right above the filler, then flip it round and in, if that makes any sense at all.

Always makes me smile seeing people tilting the hose up to drain the last drop into their tanks without realising the shutoff valve is in the hand trigger.
