Popped over to MB World on Sunday for a look around. Very nice to see one of these in the metal but shame the owner is utterly terrible at parking. Straddling two bays, probably on purpose and then about 2ft from the front of the space!
To be fair, if that was parked in 1 space, driver would never be able to open the door far enough to climb out over the sill.Its Just Adz said:

The perfect combination of the distance between the kerbs and the wheelbase of a Kia Picanto...

Some years ago I saw something similar on the A90 dual carriageway Portlethen south of Aberdeen, it had those metal barriers both sides, and at junctions where you could exit right, they came together and went down to the ground, a woman had misjudged her speed, skidded, hit the barriers sideways on and slid up them and was straddling the barriers like the car is straddling the pavement here.https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=102182...
Lucky it was rush hour and she had maximum exposure
I too saw something similar. Many years ago in Cambridge I was turning right at a set of traffic lights and there was a Reliant Robin in front of me. Lights went green and Robin set off but turned too soon and the car got beached on the kerb of the traffic island, rocking gently back and forth with his front wheel spinning aimlessly in the air.

In snow a couple of years back on the A34 heading out of Walsall, at the Bell lights I watched a young lass come flying out of her drive, across a lane of traffic and attempt to get onto the other carriage way. She simply aimed at the snow piled in between, failed to make it, got the underside of the car stuck between both carriageways and just sat there, tipping back and forth while revving her engine to no avail.
