Be careful where you park in London!

Totally agree, Pedro.

£946 for a Jaguar badge and wing mirror

Blimey do they know how how much a door mirror is on a DBS it's nearly as much as a jag!!

[stimshady]

Wow!

Good job it wasn't a convertible...

Be careful where you repost !

Imagine what that would have done to the plastic wings on one of our cars! Certainly an interesting design "feature" of the building!

Wow! So essentially the skyscraper is a spyglass and the car was an ant. But not to worry, says the builder, it only happens for a couple of hours during a certain time of year when it's sunny. Ha! The building's not even completed yet; just wait until the rest of the mirrors on that gigantic parabolic reflector are installed. It will be just like the Icarus solar satellite weapon on James Bond's Die Another Day.

Or just like the Solex in The Man With The Golden Gun

[peterr96]

Or just like the (VFX) based solar farm in "Sahara".

Exactly! "Let's build a massive magnifying glass in the middle of London and start burning things!" What a monumental fk-up from the powers that planned this construction. Sandblast the glass or heavily tint it is the way forward i guess

I'd be more careful where you park in Liverpool!

Didn't click the link. I was just using the picture to have a dig at Jockman more than anything

[Neil1300R]

Lots of Press around today. Frying eggs, or trying to. They've even parked a Merc there to see if they can melt it

I bet they didnt know the discs and pads were worth £10k when they left them behind.
