How to Rent a Car in English: Fill It Up, Turn Left, Parking Problems | Easy Podcast (A1-A2)

What do you say when you want to rent a car, fill the tank or ask the way in a small village? In this easy English podcast for beginners (A1-A2), Mark and Anna have a friendly argument: who is better on a trip, the driver or the navigator? They tell funny car stories, and you will learn how to rent a car, check it, fill it up at a petrol station, understand road signs, turn left and right, ask the way, park, talk about a small car problem and give the car back. Mark and Anna talk like two friends, with real mistakes and simple phrases you can use today: at the rental office, at the petrol station, on the road and in the car park. IN THIS LESSON YOU WILL LEARN: Renting a car: "I'd like to rent a car, please.", "I'd like to rent a car for three days.", "What kind of car do you need?", "manual", "automatic", "Can I see your driving licence, please?", "deposit", "How much is it per day?", "Is insurance included?" and "Is there a mileage limit?" Checking the car: "Excuse me, there is a scratch here.", "scratch", "dent", "Is the tank full?", "Where do I return the car?", "What time do I return it?", "pick up" and "drop off" At the petrol station: "Fill it up, please.", "Twenty pounds of petrol, please.", "unleaded", "diesel", "Excuse me, where is the nearest petrol station?" and "Pump four, please." Directions: "Go straight.", "Turn left.", "Turn right.", "Take the next left.", "Take the second right.", "Take the second exit", "roundabout" and "traffic lights" Road signs: "No entry", "Give way", "Yield", "One way", "No parking", "Road works" and "speed limit" Asking the way: "Excuse me, how do I get to the beach?", "Excuse me, is this the way to the station?", "How far is it?", "Can you draw it, please?" and "I am lost" Parking: "Is there a car park near here?", "Where can I park?", "How much is it per hour?", "Do I pay now or later?", "pay and display", "I got a parking ticket" and "I got a fine" Talking in the car: "Slow down, please.", "Be careful.", "Watch out!", "We are almost there.", "How long until we get there?" and "Can we take a break?" Car problems: "The car won't start.", "I have a flat tyre.", "The warning light is on.", "I have run out of petrol." and "Hello, I have a problem with the car. It won't start." Giving the car back: "Return with a full tank", "Here is the key. Thank you very much." and "I returned the car late." Common mistakes to avoid: "I want rent a car" (I'd like to rent a car), "Fill the car" (Fill it up), "by foot" (on foot), "Go in the left" (Go to the left), "The car is lost" (I am lost) WHO IS THIS LESSON FOR?
