And will he moan when he comes back and finds his rear offside is scratched by the black car behind him reversing out, tt

[silverfoxcc]

didn't have the camera but had a double today. Three spaces 1/2/3
Numpty 1 in 1 with rh wheels over the white line into 2
Numpty 2 in 3 with lh wheels over the white line into 2

Could just about get a bike in the remaining gap

Oops









As well as the church fence, there is also a public bench under there, luckily no one was sat on it.

Someone's gardener has parked his truck half on the pavement coming down our little road. There's one trunk road that divides off into little cul-de-sacs, halfway down the hill it splits in two and then splits again and technically becomes my cul-de-sac. This truck is parked on the first split. People seem to forget that it's right right of way of people coming or going right, however they swing out from the left without looking and off up the hill. The truck is completely blocking what little view and leaves absolutely nowhere to go should someone fly out of the left turn as someone comes down the hill... It's fine though, he's folded his mirror...

And now for some more Stateside bad parking..........

Went shopping for some office supplies and noticed the strip mall had these "Compact Only" parking spaces around the perimeter of the car park. Problem is there are so many idiots out there who don't seem to know what a "compact" car is!

A gigantic Toyota Sienna brat bus? Doesn't look very "compact" to me!





Okay, a 2008-11 US-spec Focus saloon may qualify, but at least park the damn thing properly!





But a fecking huge Toyota Highlander does not!





Pontiac Firebird owner's brain is probably too addled by crystal meth to be able to concentrate on parking!





Late '90s US-spec Honda Accord driver not even trying!





Seriously, I could have sat there all day watching people trying to squeeze inappropriately sized cars into these "compact" spaces!

[boobles]

Do they have "small" cars over there that will fit into these "compact" spaces?

O/T - We rented a new one in 2008 when they were first introduced. It was in Florida and in three weeks we put 4,500 miles on it. Great 4x4 and I would buy one in a heartbeat if I needed to buy that class of car in the USA.

But good to see that like all Fiestas of that age it has the trade mark rust around the lip of the rear wheel arch.

Aren't they basically the same car?

To be fair I thought Fiesta as well when I first saw it, it was only because someone on the other thread about it said 'its a Mazda' that I knew
