This just happened to me.

Just finished in the gym , walk to the car park to find the Swift Sport has made a friend.

Plenty of other spaces about but chose next to me :P (Their Wheels where in far better nick than mine!)

Mines the Red one.

We went around this time last year and it was also raining but despite that it was a very good day out and even the other half, who has no interest in cars enjoyed herself.

The station car park yesterday morning I found a friend, although mine has the bigger behind. The fact that the 3 series next to me has a similar reg to mine is a nice touch too.

Unlikely that I ever get to park my stuff next to anything similar, but this is about as close as it gets... Couldn't resist popping my Vincent on the end of this line of Cobra rep's, stripey Viper and Shelby Mustang.


And a chance meeting in my Jag' powered '36 Austin.


And just to illustrate that not everybody likes this sort of thing - Outside a country pub that I pass there was a Triumph Speed Triple, in black and white, parked up. I thought it would be fun to park my black and white Yamaha streetfighter, "The Weed Triple" next to it for a pic' as I'd used Triumph's paint job, lettering and style as my inspiration. Before I could take a photo, the indignant and somewhat humourless Triumph owner had harrumphed and huffed and moved his bike...

Someone at work has recently acquired a Z4. But it’s a convertible, not a coupe, and it has a weedy little engine. Therefore I do not wish to be associated with it.

Also works with the "your car has to be better" point; Mine is the top of the range Flair (with Airscape roof) while the silver one is the bottom of the range Feel
You still enjoying your C1?

I had a similar experience in Jan '17 with my Citroen, first and only time I've had the chance to park next to another.
