How can you not know whether the car you are driving in is a diesel or petrol?
Ok even if you can't here the engine you can still tell by how the power is deliered.

1. this was months ago
2. I drive hundreds of cars every day therefore kinda hard to remember

Hundreds though? How many is hundreds?
No one drives hundreds of cars in a day,
you probably move them which takes seconds. Where as the Astra you must've drove on the road to use 3/4's of a tank

I'd have the Passat. I had a Jetta as a courtesy car and it was a lovely car to drive. I'd have one if I was 40.

even working for a rental car company, they all have the same models and spec. for you to drive hundreds of cars a day as you say, based on a 9 hour shift, you would need to be driving a different car roughly every 3.5 minutes

becasue you said hundredS.
by saying hundreds, it implies not 100, but multiples of 100, so like 200, or 300.
i worked in fleet car sales, and i was in multiple different cars every day, at a push, id probably say i sat in 15-20 different cars everyday.
but its cool man

how is 15-20 cars a day not busy? when delivering cars to customers 5 miles away, taking say 20 minutes for each journey, it adds up to not a lot of cars.
even driving 60 cars today as you say, what are you actually doing. driving them around the work car park or something?
