Audi drivers and selfish parking seem to go hand in hand on here lately. What does the note say inside the rear screen?

Could have reversed park and got out me thinks.

Driver apparently said "My car was only parked in that position next to the car for a matter of minutes whilst I went to the newsagents."

Doesn't gel with her statement, either way, don't matter, he is a tt of the highest order.

This happened to me just before Christmas. Came back to my car in car park and some knob had parked touching it. The screws from his number plate actually dented my bumper.

Knowing those slight dents were there would really wind me up.

That mark has just solved a mystery! I have about 3 similar marks which appeared on the rear bumper of my Accord a long time back and I was mystified as to what could have left them - case closed!!

Funnily enough as a result of this and about three other people that can't park properly it's about to go in for a re-spray of said bumper - lets see haw long that lasts with tw@ts like that out there!!

PS - have you taken any form of action about it?

That is why I quite fancy getting a tow bar fitted. What a prick.

Some cheeky fker actually parked so close to my wifes car, that has a towbar, when he noticed that he'd cracked his bumper he tried to claim she rolled into him. Fortunately the car park had CCTV so not only did it get rejected we also got to report him to the police for fraud.

The car park attendant told me who the car belonged to, so I went to his shop and he tried to deny it. He said I had reversed parked into him!! Car Park attendant backed me up as I was one of the first cars into the car park, nothing was anywhere near me. He agreed to pay for the damage, only to get me out of his shop I think!!
Lucky for him, I got the marks out with hot water and a hairdryer.

Nice job, with a bit more effort, they could have lined the white line up with the badge.

Since he'd given a written statement to the insurance company and was trying to claim whiplash I can only make the assumption the police did naff all. We did get a crime number though which did make him retract his statement to his insurers and the claim was cancelled.

She's not exactly blameless, though - car not parked straight in the box, front wheel not far from the line, steering still on lock...
Anyway, why would a be-suited, flash, 25-year-old Audi driver park in a multistory (necessitating use of a ticket machine) when only popping to the newsagent, when there's presumably a nearby disabled bay, double-yellow (hazards on, naturally) or pick-up-bay he could have dumped the car in for "only a few minutes"?

The Golf driver probably is a coach driver, it's just today they don't have the coach with them. A bit like those people who park in Parent & Child parking without any children ....

Its not as if the car park was busy either; all day it was only half full.

I would love to be in the mind of someone like that; just for a day, to experience their world and how they think and see things; OK it isn't the most heinous thing to do but I just wouldn't do it, why does this person think it is fine to do so.
