I parked the Phantom at the airport once. At 5.8m long this was the result and something I urge you to avoid.
Thanks Stain, that makes my decision even easier

Hello Allister, its a real shame that your having these thoughts about where to drive and park the mulsanne, I have the same issue as I too succumbed to the lure of the mulsanne a few months back. However Im used to driving large and wide USA pick-up trucks and habitually leave my cars parked as if abandoned, after having been driven as if stolen. Please enjoy your mulsanne as and when you can, remember you are also putting that smile on bystanders faces too!!

Hi wodgywodgy

Thank you for your reply - Previously I had a Ferrari which we hardly ever used, this was another reason why I switched to the Mulsanne, because I wanted something more usable (and of course more comfortable) but I do still have reservations about leaving it unattended at the airport for 7 days.

I do take on board and completely agree with what you're saying though and you have a very good point. These cars depreciate far too quickly to be left sitting in a garage - If you're going to throw away thousands of pounds each year in depreciation and running costs, you might as well use and enjoy it!

We have a road trip planned to France in June which I'm very much looking forward to - I'll aim to get some good use out of it then.

Paris is not on the itinerary, although we will have to contend with the Boulevard Périphérique - Which I guess could be classed as parking in Paris and is probably more hazardous!
