My e86 fits fine yet it seems this e89 requires 2 spaces, thought the newer model might be abit bloaty and softer but are they really wide? :fuelfire:
In fairness to the guilty party they had parked as far away from the shops as possible and there were plenty of spaces. :wink:

There might be plenty of spaces, but to me that just smacks of a lack of spatial awareness!

A bit like one of my neighbours - she can't get a poxy Aygo within the confines of her space if my car isn't there when she parks, so when I get home after her and can't get in my space! :headbang:

Not sure where you are, but around here some car parks will ticket you for not parking within the bays - I just wish they all did (although sizing the bays to accommodate modern cars would also help). :roll:

No
Its obviously intentional to stop the car getting damaged by people who have no spatial awareness.

Well that won't work - people with no spatial awareness will still park 8 inches from the driver's door. :P

I'm thinking more like :crapparking: :rofl:
