Following that post a few weeks ago about people parking too close and blocking your drivers door i thought 'theres loads of room to get in!!, you guys should see the parking spaces in England!!! Its a fact that parking spaces have not increased in size along with car's (you've seen mini's right??:) )
This is where i park every day!!

I hardly take mine out. At the moment besides driving to work and around the place.
The roofrack looks close to the roof of the building in one of those pics

Very Tight I love the cladding for protecting the doors from shopping carts and other drivers swinging their door open.
I do not think you could get the door going fast enough to ding anything in the limited space available
As an avid fan of the BBC's Top Gear this reminds me of when they take their old Mercedes and Rolls into London and try and park them! Those guys crack me up:slap::dan_ban::LineWave::laughy:Quote:

Anyway, parking. There is one difference between parking there and here. Discipline and courtesy. We lack it here. Sorry if this offends any of my Yankee brothers and sisters, but unless you have lived elsewhere, you wouldn't understand.
ROWHARD--- You're absolutely right about people in the USA lacking discipline and courtesy. That's why I carry a baseball bat to instill discipline and demand courtesy. "AIM HIGH"!!!Quote:

I was trying to find the other 'parking spaces' thread from about a year ago. I think etlsport started it. I can't find it tho. Anyone know what happened to it?

it never really took off.. but heres the photo that started the thread.. i was proud of this parking job.. saw a wrangler pull out of it and decided that the vx could go anywhere a wrangler could! so with lots of maneuvering and a back up camera.. i parallel parked here...

You politely complain to another drive about its bad driving behavior & please expect a F there & a F there for answer ending with a classic : mind your own F..... business :madb:
Yeah it's the great apple !
