Posh car hire company in Staincliffe, Dewsbury. Just a tad wider than a sandwich board.

Spotted a Macca 650S at Bicester Outlet

Nope, don't agree with that - that's good parking.

The driver of that VW Touran is the problem here. If the Macca driver tries to park in the space next to the Polo, he's bound to have someone try to wedge themselves in the space next to the Touran - probably resulting in damage caused to the 650S. Alternatively, if the Macca driver tries to park in the space next to the Touran, he'll be too wide and some twit will probably try to wedge themselves next to the Polo; again, probably resulting in damage to the 650S.

ETA: Plus, he's folded in his mirrors so that's a definite 11/10 for parking prowess.
where was it said that the Touran was there first?

According to our local blog "Apparently it was caused by a rather 'inexperienced' driver having nicked someone else's car. While cruising down Braemar Road they look to have hit the rear wheel of a 4x4 which, even though not at great speed, caused the car to flip over. The driver is understood to have crawled out."

Two in one from this morning (technically three because I parked the MPS like a t**t due to the mouth breather in the landy).


Needed to make a quick stop for some milk this morning, there is a small car park / space outside the shop for about 6 cars *plus* two on the road. Needless to say the car park was filled. So idiot here parks so far back that you cannot properly park two cars in the space and the car behind has to overhang the dropped kerb a bit

Noticed afterwards the transit. Missed that at the time. smile
Just look at the litter. Shameful.

Correct. I was thinking about putting him in the mis-badged thread as well except it wasn't mis-badged, it was over-badged. Every badge was duplicated; where Audi put Quattro, he had added S-line and where Audi put S-line, he had added Quattro. And on the back there was a random Audi Sport badge in German that had been prised off somewhere and stuck on.

Swaggering about the place he was like a bloke with too many badges on his car. "I can park there, I have badges."

Odd.

I can't fathom out how you can go fast enough down that road to do that, experienced or not? It's one of the worst roads to have to use because of parked cars on both sides of the road means you drive at a relatively slow speed.
