Ok I am sure I am not the only one that does this:
In my Mini, I park as far forward as I can, and next to the biggest cars i can find!, and then ya watch the people try and pull in to your park because they think it is empty...funny stuff!
Maybe I am just strange!

Ahh what?s life without a laugh :D

:shock: NO NO NO NO NO!!! :shock:

My personal parking technique is to park with my nose in line with the cars either side of me. This lowers the chance of somebody touch-parking the back and also eliminates the possibility of someone screaming into the park from the front because they think that there's no car there and leaving a nice big ding in your poor Mini...

My thoughts, not gospel. :)

Still funny though, like putting your shopping in your car and a car indicates to pull in, and then you go back into the shop. They hate it :D

Same here I've seen too many people fly into what they think is an empty space only to have to pull up quickly because theres a small car there that they couldn't see.

I do it at Russell Offices to piss the pricks orff that park in defence car parks then get a bus to the city( tight arse civilian bastards!!! - PRESENT COMPANY EXCLUDED OF COURSE!!)

Another trick i like doing is walking through car parks and slowing next to a car....wait for the dills to pull up and walk off. Or i go on a bijou stroll around the Canberra centre multi level park for shits and giggles. Had 4 cars follow me one day...lmao.

Childish - YES

Fun - crap yeah!!

Hooroo

i like parking diagonally and getting my moneys worth of the space

also coz im rather tall i need the driver door opened a long way to get out whcih useually means the person who parked the other side cant get in (hehehehe) as i park so far over

nah i think two is the max. i nosed in as far as possible like usual and he reversed in behind me. i think both front ends were just outside the lines and you would have been lucky to have 10cm between back bumpers. a picture would have been great to get. i challenge someone to fit more more than three into one spot!
