I'd rather my fingers go between the edge of the door and someone elses door that the edge of the door touch the next car. I would hate to have to apologise for any damage, because I know how I would feel if it happened to mine.

I'm always checking my doors when I return to the car after being in a carpark. Its getting a bit OCD :givein:

I have my favourite parking spaces, which makes the wife very happy having to walk down from the top of a multi story carpark

Cupra, there are some great roads. Also some shitty ones, but I doubt you'll get sent down them. We have a motorway and everything now

Sidmouth is about 10 miles down the coast from me, I'm in Exmouth. That's just the tip of the iceberg with the Cornish to be fair

Bet that parking place took you sometime to find lol

I actually went round the car park twice. Then parked up to the right of that (closer to the camera). Then decided I didn't like it. So moved round onto the corner. Which I then realised wasn't a parking spot but thought sod it. They must have thought I was crazy because everyone else parked up the camera end of the car park, even when I got back to it 3 hours later.

I always park as far away as I possibly can from the entrance to anywhere and especially avoid parent and child spaces. There are some right muppets at the gym so I park miles away. Corners are usually good especially if its curved and they have continued the spaces round the curve as you usually get a couple of extra feet either side.

For Tesco I drop the other half and come back an hour later :bounce:

I refuse to go the out of town NEXT near us unless I can get there way before opening time to get the only 'decent' or 'pretty' space as my gf calls it away from everyone else.

No that's a good space - I used to get the comment 'couldn't you get any further away' but she is used to it now...
