Saw a lovely grey Gt3 rs today down at Hamble so wondered if that was why? Saw the owner afterwards drive off being mighty careful of the splitter.. Anyone on here?

That was me, we took the RS down to the coast as I was meeting a chap about my boat refit and stopped for lunch at the bugle, I got a ticket in the Hamble car park for covering 2 spaces... Doh! Glad you noticed the car, it gets quite a bit of attention thanks to bright red wheels and that giant wing!

That seems a harsh ticket - didn't notice you were in a second bay as was too busy admiring your car and the silver Carrera next to you.

Much "angrier" sounding car than my lowly Cab - has just made me want an exhaust upgrade even more thumbup

i bet you parked liked that for a reason! better to pay the cost of a ticket rather than someone opening their door onto yours leaving a nice dent!!

really though, we have parking for disabled, parking for families, surely there should be extra wide parking for special cars only

This is the "evidence" on the Eastleigh councils website when I've gone to pay the PCN, pretty borderline fine if you ask me!!

Quite a nice shot of the car by the parking warden tho ;O)

If you purchase and display 2 parking tickets, can you take up two spaces?

That's a great question, may be different answer depending on who's on duty though?

I guess we need to be considerate to other car park users, I only parked accross 2 bays because the car park was 70% empty at the time..

You can usually guarantee that someone will of managed to get in the adjacent space, usually a bloody great 4x4 so it doesn't always pay to stray outside of the marked bay ;-)

SteelySteve you drive the 1:1 version of the car I built out of 'lego' (actually Mega Bloks) on Boxing Day. It's a great kit with loads of detail especially interior and engine. biggrin
