Saw this on Friday afternoon.

While I wouldn’t say that it’s illegal, it is somewhat special.

I guess parking halfway up an embankment makes them feel like the purchase of an Outlander for inner city driving is justified

You might also note the diplomatic plates. Which made my own discovery yesterday in O’Connor all the sweeter.

Dont see anything wrong with the second one, if the other car next to him parked in the lines I am sure he would have made the effort to park correctly, It only takes one to mess up and push every other car out of line

Agree. This topic sometimes gets a little whiney. I think some people prowl carparks desperately looking for something to be appalled by.

I’m appalled by that statement. Sadly, I’m not in a carpark.

No need, they have diplomatic immunity.

Pretty sure that is an X-trail, and that is about the limits of it off road capability………

Agreed, I’m amazed it made it up that incline..

What’s wrong with the X-Trail? He deserves a commendation as he’s obviously gone above and beyond to ensure his vehicle is well out of the way of fellow patrons of the car park.
