Oliver, who posted a short TikTok video, told of how a multi-functional divider in centre console could be used as an ice scraper.

Oliver said: "That is also an ice scraper. If you live in a snowy area you are laughing. You just whip this little bugger out and get the snow and ice off our windscreen."

The second divider in the centre console could be used as a bottle opener. Oliver explained this was perfect for weekend camping trips.

He said: "Super cool multi-functional equipment from VW."

A Volkswagen 'T2' from 1967 with an incredibly unique interior is up for sale.

The iconic 'surf bus' has been brilliantly modified inside and has even won awards.

The much-loved VW Camper, or Trasporter 'Splittie', is described as a "simple yet stylish van that started out as a camper van and then became a surf bus".

This model, currently up for auction via Car & Classic until January 1, comes with a two tone bronze and cream colour scheme as well as a bespoke high quality lounge-style interior.

It's vast cream curved bench sits inside and matches the van's carpet and goes together with the wooden trim and fittings.

The bench comes fitted with seatbelts and includes cabinets underneath with stained wood finish, with a cutlery and crockery set found inside the rear of the cabin seat.

If you don't have a VW camper, other motors also boast similar hidden ice scrapers too.

The fuel filler flap on most of Skoda vehicles also has a hidden scraper.

Elsewhere, Toyota drivers were stunned to discover their own "hidden" button that could save them in an emergency.
