Is there an official thread ?

Just reading how someone parked on the beach down in Newquay.

As the tide slowly comes in over the car the local Bugle player turns up to play the last post.

Looks to be AI. The door handles are not E36 and the wheels are odd.

Looks like an E36 and E39 combined

I've seen something similar happen in Bosham, west sussex. No bugle players though.

That pic is fake, not least because there are the wrong reflections in the car paint of the wall and people above.

But mainly because the bugle player can walk on water.

Might be a fake pic but was a fairly common event in the summer down here on the coast. Regularly saw daytrippers cars going backwards into the harbour on the slipway as they tried to pull a boat and trailer out for the first time. If they were lucky one of the locals would be watching and hitch up a landy or something more suitable and save them or drag them out as the tide came back in when they inevitably got stuck.

The bugle isn't a bugle and the man isn't playing it. Never mind.

Bosham in West Sussex, happens almost every day in the summer.
The overflow car park is named accurately.
