Or as my wife and I discovered on a drive around South Africa...a fuel tank door that just opens when it chooses to.
We stopped to fill up (from near empty) to the brim before returning the car and just couldn't get it to open! We felt complete idiots as the attendant waited to help us! In the end we gave up and crawled into Cape Town on fumes. Luckily the rental agency felt out pain and didn't charge us for the fill up ^
