After reading reviews I was a little bit worried, but it all went smoothly. Person at the counter was pleasant and informative, not pushy which is nice for a chance. I have bought upfront fuel witch came with slight car upgrade, fuel was slightly more expensive then at the pump, but I have got better car, so not complaining. Car was clean and tidy all in good condition.
