I parked my old Civic next to the Civic that was registered immediately before it. Same car, same colour and one number different on the plate. Mine was less rusty and less dented.

hehe

I'm also guilty of forming a 'same model convoy' if I'm not in a rush on the motorway.

Its funny to see how many other owners like it and how many try to escape. (why does that sound a bit wrong when I write it down?!)

You don't have your car in your profile.

Care to share what rarity you own ?
Can't you see that's what he wanted to happen?

My old Kangoo (at the back) in Bavaria, it was unusual to see another in the same blue.

Only time I have ever seen another out in the wild, had to be done.

Look like "flat erics" to me. I have one in the RB.

And the second candidate for the bad parking thread... I mean... C'mon. both cars parked badly in an empty car park.

I always try and park near 'the relations' (no photos of same model, though I have done so plenty of times, sorry!)

Struggle to do this with either of mine. Only 288 RBs left, and only 244 new WRX STIs are registered. Still haven't seen another one on the road, but I have already seen 3 of those new i8 BMW things.

Only thing worse than parking next to an identical model, is taking a picture of said cars.

Not sure if these are in single figures yet, but can't be far off and as far as I know, there's only two north of the border... so I'd pretty much decided the chances of seeing another were pretty minimal.



Fairly burst my bubble that day...

FFS - Can't anyone on PH actually park a car between the lines?

It took me nearly a year to see another Megane 250 on the road. Looked in the rear view mirror one day on the way home and there was a mirror image of my car behind me - same colour and spec. I don't think he could believe it either - you don't see them very often!
