I for one wouldn't even think of leaving my car that far from the kerb.
Reminds me of an occasion some time ago, when my wife, who is a really, really, good driver, making most guys look like rank amateurs, reversed into a parking spot just north of Oxford Street, in London’s West End.I for one wouldn't even think of leaving my car that far from the kerb.
It had been just a tad tight, but she’d managed it, like the expert that she is, and she said to me, “Is that okay ?”
I opened my door, nearest to the kerb, and saw that there was maybe a 15cm gap, I said “That’s fine, I can walk to the kerb from here.”
She went ballistic!

With your career the above edited would have been more apt. She went ballistic!
The guy with the Lambo, just read the rest of the article, an obstruction on the pavement so he couldnt park any closer, explains it all, can't park so don't drive, easy.

Self-entitled t
t.Why even own a car like that if you do that when you take it out? It's a car ffs. It's not a precious oil painting that needs to be handled with extreme care.
Ironically, that sort of behaviour draws more attention and makes people want to make a point in return.
What that needed was someone in an old shed parking right up against it.
t.Some arrogant fekker in Glasgow does the same with his roller, parks on DYL's outside where he works, apparantly the recovery trucks cant lift it, too heavy, he just keeps paying the fine.

The whole story did put a smile on my face Frank7, I've used similar with Mrs Bobbers, she's a good driver but struggles with reverse parking, she shuffled our car into a space a while ago, I opened my door and there was at least a foot between the car and Kerb, she also asked if it was ok, "yeah I should make it if I take a run up and jump!" I replied, she smiled and said "I'll get out then, give you some space for your run up!!!!"

I had a pristine boxster a good few years ago and after only a few months the doors and wings were peppered with supermarket carpark dents. Took off around a grand of its value at resale.
When I bought the AM i used to park as far away as possible from 'couldnt care less brigade'.
And then I went online for everything and never have to place my current P&J, which took a lot of sacrifice and saving, in jeopardy.
Perhaps if people owned an expensive car they might feel differently ?
Nice car BTW !

I've seen this selfish fker a few times at a Tescos near me, so I actually suspect that they might work there. It's always parked over two bays, which is weird as it's just a generic white goods diesel Golf with fake smaller GTI wheels.
Consistent I'll give them that ker a few times at a Tescos near me, so I actually suspect that they might work there. It's always parked over two bays, which is weird as it's just a generic white goods diesel Golf with fake smaller GTI wheels.

School run Mum parking? I see about 10 a day like that as I walk my daughter to and from school, the local tyre fitters and wheel refurb people must love them. 
That said I flagged a woman down the other day who was driving along with a complete flat, apparently she knew all about it and was going to get it sorted, didn't want to engage. It was about a mile to the nearest tyre place and it wouldn't have been open. I'd have been more than willing to chuck the spare on for her.
