Is it 'cos you can use the remote control so you don't need to shout "up a bit, left a bit" to another person? Just guessing...

And you can fill up, check the oil and windscreen wash without getting out of the car.

I automatically assumed what BigJohn said to be honest. In France there's loads of autaomtic total stations (no staff)

your point is valid both, just the wrong subject matter. perhaps i should hve been more explicit with my question. 😆

you have made me laugh though so all is not lost. found a really boring youtube vid that answered my question. so the prize (there is no prize) goes to konabunny for being closest to the actual answer. i might mention service stations operated by total fuels though. share the mirth and all that.
