Rear window is wound down and a different shape.

Pretty sure that's just the reflection of something else...

I don't doubt your Waughtism but I don't think the panels / gaps are the same. Do you see where I'm coming from?

Photo of blue 406 stolen from another PH thread. Apologies to the photo owner.

Hmmm, I stand corrected, the door isn't far enough forward... The shape of the bonnet, the creases, the wing are spot on though, even the shapes in the backrest of the seat...

Rear window in photo is wound down, 406 Coupe had hinged rear windows. Car aslo appears to have a rain gutter of some sort, which the 406 Coupe didn't have.

That is one of the best...just how many 'causes for concern' are they raising;

1) Obstructing footway
2) Parked on double yellow lines
3) Hazardous manouevre getting into position (against traffic flow and onto footway)
4) Too close to a corner
5) Obstructing carriageway
6) Dirty paintwork

Is there a rating system in operation for this thread? Hall of Flame?

Being a left hand drive... Window down, head out.

Old biddy sitting there for about 15 mins, then drove off.

Half an hour later, a white van man sitting in the zig zags on the approach eating his sarnies, doh...

Taken in Cockermouth the other day.

Taking up 4 spaces.

Presented for your consideration.





When I complimented him on his parking his rather lame reply was "err thanks".

[P Nuts]

^^ Fair play for taking a pic whilst he's sat in the car and a comment to lol

[lyonspride]

"Where shall we park?"
"Oh I know, next to this nice sign!!"

And then directly above that....

My brother-in-law is in Rome at the moment and just shared this one:

Saw this today and thought of Pistonheads! My photo doesn't really show the parking in all its glory. Front wheel was actually into the next space, rear wheel is not far off it. Plus the front of the van was well into the walkway in front of the space. And where do we start with the signwriting on the side of the van? Oh, and obviously there was no blue badge displayed, either.

I like the Italians attitude to parking. What's annoying here seems the norm there.

Want to park? Just park where you damn well like.

In the Apostrophe thread, I reckon.

You would think that when your name and phonenumber is clearly visible on your vehicle, you'd park a little bit better? Sucker! Not great advertising your firm!

Is there still one running? If so, it definitely needs to be posted there.
