It just clicked

Impressive new Dacia Duster has key to success and proves why it is so popular

WELL I may be teaching my granny how to suck eggs here, but for the first time with the Dacia Duster I found myself quite delighted with the way the car automatically opens as I walk up with the key in my pocket.

Now this is not new tech. Indeed it has been around for a while and until now I simply thought it was one of these quirky features that car manufacturers love putting on their cars but really - why?

It came as something of a surprise therefore that as the week progressed I found myself really appreciating this shortcut. As I walked up to the car with hands full of shopping bags, the car clicked on and I opened the door and flung things in.

Similarly, when I had to carry stuff into a friend's house, it just locked automatically after me.
