Will I get used to driving a manual 2013 Dacia Lodgy? :')
Here i am, hoping to one day have money to afford a small car (maybe a Twingo or so) - and now my sweet dear grandma has passed away and leaves us a 2013 Dacia Lodgy. It's a manual and it's huge and it is SCARY for me.
I learnt driving in a manual Audi 80, felt very safe and secure with it. Then didn't drive for a few years. Then drove my mum's Mercedes B 180 automatic for a year (20,000 km) and then moved to a big city where i used car sharing and drove an Opel Corsa (automatic) and a Renault Zoe occasionally. LOVED those cars size-wise.
Now i sit here with this Lodgy. It would be so stupid to not give it a proper try (fincancially) but i have already driven it in town a few times and feel overwhelmed by it (and it has no park assistance beeping for the front which makes it even more difficult).
Can you tell me something that makes me fall in love with this car and encourages me to practice driving it? Right now it really scares me (and at the end of the day I want to be safe for me and for others). Thank you!
PS: Selling it to get another car is unfortunately no option. It belongs to my uncle officially but he will let me drive it. He probably wouldn't sell it though and give me the money for another car.
