Obsessive parking, or what?

Fixed that for you - single spoke

Certainly different!
But definitely no!
And that's coming from me.

That's because there's too much sidewall for you (and too much chrome)

If anyone in those cars behind you takes their hand of the trolley for a minute it's in the back of your car... (Ask me how I know...)
Also, need to be careful for ricer's practising their drift skills in that spot

How do you know, BC?

+1 How do you know !

Well since you asked...

I parked at the top of a carpark in South Wales over 200 yards from the supermarket as I was going to the bookshop close to where I'd parked. Someone had obviously been to the supermarket but didn't feel like walking their trolley back. So they just left it and it ran into my drivers side rear door - not a happy bunny was I.

Another incident, I'd just parallel parked on a busy street (small parking area big enough for 3 cars in a row) I was sat there when a car pulled up besides me and the woman in the passenger seat just threw her door open right into my wing. Never expected to get a parking ding on the offside when parallel parked... It's just one of those things

Did you confront the said Lady BC ?

I asked what she was doing, she said “sorry”. Not a great deal else you can do unfortunately.

Always park at the back of a car park, if unable to will park next to a clean newer the better motor with the reasoning that the owner of such a vehicle will not be as clumsy with their door as someone in a beaten up wreck, and definitely stay away from a green P driver

The joys of a beaten up rusty 210. No one parks close......

All goods points and the same way of thinking as myself, may I add baby seats , I would definitely not park next to a vehicle with them.
The owner is probably hacked off because they couldn’t get in a parent and child, and with having to open the doors extra wide it’s well worth avoiding.

Whys that ED ? Surly the risk is reduced, because only one side of the vehicle is vulnerable.

And when you vanish into the shop or whatever that nice clean better car than yours disappears and dirty old white van man fills the space

I can definitely relate to that !!

I can ONLY park at the end of a row, and even then I have to decide whether to reverse in or face in...
