Been umm'ing and arrr'ing about posting this or no all morning, but we have a new starter at work from Spain.

There are as many differences as similarities, from the fuel type the boot lip, but in a carpark of 25 cars he has clearly opted to park next to the other E46 330. Any yes, one of the guys dailys a mint TVR.

How do you get the cars in the red row out?

Company carpark. Most of the cars are shopfloor who leave together, those that aren't drive around each other, know each other, else reception have reg number.
It's not a perfect system but it beats walking from th big communal carpark or reversing through the fence into the Mersey.

Nipped to the supermarket and came out to find a fellow Saab owner parked next to me -



Both cars are 2008 Aero autos. Lovely anorak moment

No pictures I'm afraid as it was dark...

Couple of years ago one summer evening got tucked into some cider in a very rural pub on the Somerset moors. Had a lock in and come 3 AM it was time to head home. Got into a friends dark blue focus but it wouldn't start and we couldn't figure out why.

His blue focus was parked next to it - both obviously unlocked. Highly amusing at the time and we eventually got home safely. It took us 15 minutes to figure out though...

Saw on page 36 a fellow ST estate owner found a peer to park beside. I've only ever seen 3 driving about. None parked.

One day!!

Chance happening the other weekend, totally lost on the other driver as they faffed not realising what had parked next to them!



The other was much cleaner and has obviously been garaged, otherwise both manual 9-3 Aeros 👍
