Yep

Didn't think it would be 'right' to put one on a diesel Astra...

I'm working on it though

Thanks Kinks! Now the world of PH is also aware of my ingenious parking

Pulling into a full car park behind a Seat and a Saab. Already seen a couple of cars pull in, drive around looking for spaces, and then drive out fruitlessly. As luck would have it, three chaps have just left the shop and are about to drive off in their cars. The Seat, in front, lets them go, and it's a perfect oppo for the three cars in the queue (the Seat, the Saab, and me in the M3) to take the three spaces.

Imagine my annoyance when they parked like this.



Happy ending to the story though - the chap who runs security in the car park is a buddy of mine, and a quick phone call and a "look at these knobs!" ended up in a pair of parking tickets. As for me, said friend just told me to stick my car on some nearby hatchings, as he was wandering around the car park anyway.

The black one looks more VW-ish, handles look very mkV Golf.

Did that make you feel all superior to them?

Those tickets aren't enforceable, they are just an invoice you can throw in the bin.

But nicely applied double standards, given that parking on cross hatching also attracts these invoices.

Apparently they only have two sales a year - each of six months.

I got back to my car last weekend and somebody had parked that close to my driver's door.

And no, I wasn't parked on the bloody line. Pity I didn't think to take a photo for this thread.

I know it's not the point of the thread, but that car's so much nicer than the new lump they've just come out with. And I've seen both models parked side by side.
