Discussion

Knowing how the local press works, I'd imagine that they weren't there to take pictures of the actual parking that resulted in folk being 'blocked in' and that these are pictures of (slightly less serious) selfishness taken at a later stage to illustrate the story 
None of which makes the parking in that photo any less terrible.
Nor does it make the car in the picture any less an Audi
It Shirley wouldn't have been too difficult for some of those 170 drivers to grow a pair and manhandle the obstruction(s) away?None of which makes the parking in that photo any less terrible.

With a parking space on the other side of the road...
Was the woman getting in, or trying to get past? I think if it was the latter I'd have been tempted to let the handbag connect with the car all the way down the side...(If I was a woman that was
)I was going to 'bump' the wing mirror but couldn't get past.

The woman was speaking to the driver, (who was in the car), but I don't know if she knew him or was pointing out how much of a dick he was.

There is a door mirror on each side. Either would bend back nicely with a little persuasion.I was going to 'bump' the wing mirror but couldn't get past.

And, yes, I have done this with a driver in the car. Even male ones! And I am certainly not a goateed weightlifter!

LOUTH, Lincolnshire.
Parked on bus stop for several minutes, driver inside and engine running.
The liveried Police van that had been parked behind this car was driven away by its uniformed occupant as I started taking pictures. Coincidence?

That says so much about the owners of those cars.
Dont see anything wrong with this...these are very valuable cars and CANNOT be parked in the same way or space as a £500 ford fiesta...This is automotive royalty and must be treated by respect, which means they can park wherever they will be safe from idiots opening doors on them. And so what if they get a £50 fine - much cheaper than fixing the panel damage. So stop winging people......TP321 said:

A mirror pointing the wrong way, (not broken!), does give one a sense of achievement and would hope got 'the message' across.
I guess if I'd thought about it I could've 'bumped' the passe
nger side mirror but it didn't cross my mind at the time.
Duly noted.
