HAHAH! Had my 1st experience of a multi-storey car park last night picking up the girlfriend from the airport, and what fun that was! The noise was FANTASTIC ears and it was so much fun to see all the other holiday makers looking tired and annoyed at the ridiculous loud car thundering round level 1! Then level 2... then back to level 1 again!

AWESOME!hehe

Just thought I'd share it with you so you can share in my (juvenile - admittidly) joy! beer

Have you ever been told off for being too noisy by the fun police?

When I got to my local shopping centre with my oldest boy we take the Chim and drive all the way up to the top of the multistorey, then decide we really want to park on the ground floor...then we get down there and find no spaces so its all the way back to the top again hehehe..

they have car veleters at the entrance and last time they all stopped work and ran over to watch me go by

Loving it !

When feeling in a childish mood i take the Chim out for a noisy drive around Croydon.
Up and down main road through town centre that has a nice underpass in it, down through main road with high buildings for the noise then onto Ikea carpark which have an underground part to it which is very low and usually very empty aswell thumbup

I love using Dartford tunnel & The Blackwall tunnel. driving I'm the only Muppet with the windows down.

I can't use my local multi-story as it has those stupid little speed bumps (I have a phobia of them ever since I lost all the engine oil after hitting one at 3mph at the local BP garage) but I bet the noise is amazing. ears

Surprised you dare take it there, but I suppose since the Hoody ban, it's much less full of the Nova SRi's and all that guff!

The Hatfield tunnel on the A1 is another good one...

The new('ish) Medway tunnel on the link road between the A2 and Rainham in Kent is another good one.
