Flew up the street with tragically loud drill music playing, parked in a loading bay and the two of them trotted off to the barbers.

An hour later and it was still there.



And this one needed to try and park in the chip shop, get on the road pedestrians!



And a bonus one...

I recognise every one of those locations but I can't place where they are!!

Now with added gentrification



The Farmfoods opens next week too.

Local Asda the other night. The car park was 10% full.






Yes, the door is open and the engine is running.
I actually laughed out loud as he got out and walked to the cashpoint (out of picture, other side of the trolley park)

Who needs to use a dropped kerb anyway?

Double yellows, and caused an obstruction to cars trying to turn in to the road. Plenty space to park just a few yards further on...but of course that would be too far to walk to the post office

I quite enjoyed this in Mayfair this morning. Not as bad as some, but I couldn't leave the car like that. Also, on a yellow line, opposite a turn so causing issues.

On a separate note, how st does black on black on black look?

Very.
You're not Knight Rider and you never will be, so stop it.

It's somehow even worse to need a taxi to the kerb on the driver's side. They haven't even got the excuse of not knowing how wide the car is.

On a separate note, the numberplate should be on the bad numberplates too - they've gone out of their way to have non legal spacing, but it still doesn't seem to spell anything I can see.

Would have been worse were it not for the minor relief provided by the silver of the diamond cut alloys.

Diamond cut alloys are a separate irritation in salty Scotland - I hate them with a passion.

I quite like the black look. It would be a dull world if we all liked the same thing.

But we all like different things! There are many different combinations of colour and trim on the road today.

It’s just a very high percentage don’t like that one.

On here maybe, but you see a lot on the roads so obviously a lot do like it.

In reality that exact combo is a rare sight.

So the correct term would be some and not a lot.

Unless you name is Nick and you are 70 years old?

I see quite a few black with black cars so I'm not so sure about that.

But hey it doesn't actually matter what we think about someone else's car choice, if they like it then that's all that matters.

Indeed. I just think that a lot of design detail is lost on black cars, then the black wheels just hide the actual design and size of the wheels too... Not for me!

In the same respect the 'perfect' spec on a car for me would likely be considered st by someone else.

I don’t see many, being perfectly honest.

Glad to hear that other people opinions don’t matter to you after all.
