Good? Bad?

Impressive? I've dubbed it the 'tripod'

Only 5/10 for that. There's at least an inch and a half of tyre on the kerb. To do it properly it has to be only the friction between kerb and sidewall holding the wheel up. Extra bonus points if it then slides down to road level when someone slams the boot shut.

Had 2 attempts, and this is the best they could manage.

Looking again, I am wondering if the blue car is in a bay at all.

It quite obviously is.

Not sure why you are so defensive.

Going to ignore you now, go try get a rise out of someone else.

Part of me really feels sorry for that little car.

It's a bit like when I see the TV adverts for the donkey sanctuary and they show footage of a sad faced little mule laden with about 400 weight of bricks, plodding up a hill with one gammy hoof.

Lost me there matey, not defensive at all. A simple question that’s all, nothing else, crap parking but I was wondering if the blue car was actually in a bay that’s all.

Simple questions need simple answers, if that isn’t too difficult.

Parking alignment itself is fine. But where their parked.

A passing place on the way to trevose lighthouse all to avoid paying a couple of quid for the NT car park...right next to the PP.

Beggars belief to save a couple of quid.Not causing a huge issue but PITA for some campers I watched trying to manovere. There used to be signs saying pp only on this private road, no longer.

Assume the porker is 100+k car (I have no knowledge of porkers as find them of no interest) and the 'lovely plate caps it all off...its clealry someone on here too you would think, why not pay the car park like everyone else please explain yourself!

Oh and special credit for the ferrari waking us all up for last 3 weeks in carbis bay. Facking tourists!

Edit.the parking alignmemt is cack too in hindsight plenty of room on thr right not to need to be on the bitumen.

Sorry, this is me. I stopped to take a st behind that big rock on the right then got scared when I saw the camper vans so stayed hidden for a while.

Cheers for this though.

Christ alight that is minging, wonder if they feel a sense of pride as they nail on the last bit of bodywork?

Is that actually based on anything, or has the owner only stopped licking windows for enough time to buy stickers from a collection of random brands and a few bits of bodywork tat?

This absolute extension always parks like this. Must be very careful in preventing accidental damage to his high value, exclusive, premium chariot.

Not even managed to line up with the Merc badge on the wall, do they work there?

Another great bit of parking from a Mercedes driver.

Not so much parked as had enough driving.

Pretty sure that is no 7 on the Bristol Stool Chart.

The only pavement. Parking for about 10 cars behind me and empty.

Muppet. I can't tell the size of the curb, but it's a complete pain in the ass if you're using a wheelchair / mobility scooter or a pram. Tit.

And the left verge looks wet, slippery, and sloping down from the path, so also not a good alternative for said wheelchair etc.

Smart car parked sideways on sticking out into the road





Looks like the backs had a glancing blow before



Srange that I haven't seen Smart car for months yet suddenly there's four together.
