This Valet Parker Was Completely Baffled By A Ford Fiesta ST’s Manual Gearbox
Despite insisting he knows how to drive a manual gearbox, this young detailer's assistant makes numerous amusing errors while trying to move a Fiesta ST before finally giving up and letting his boss finish the job
Despite a little crunching going on, the uploader mentioned that no damage was done to the car, and clarified that he is “not pissed about this.” We can only assume the employee exaggerated his ability to drive a manual gearbox’d car when applying for the job.
Our favourite thing about the video - other than the gentle classical music in the background adding an extra touch of hilarity - is the excuse he drops at the 2min 9sec mark…

What a fool. He thinks that shifting to S/M in an auto-manual car is the same as driving an actual manual. He could only get out of it by insulting the car, which only made his situation more ridiculous and hilarious. This is why I never leave my car to valets
It’s so funny seeing people who don’t even know how to drive a stick when in Europe it’s the only way to get your licence !
Extreme clutches can be hard to get used to but damn lol this is bad
It’s a fiesta, not an extreme car.
He was low on gearstick fluid
Hahahaha soo funny!! but painful to watch!
If you pass your driving test in the UK using an Automatic car then you Will Not be entitled to drive (unaccompanied ) a Manual car, this vid goes to show why……..
