some people complain about "van drivers" but in all fairness if we werent forced to do this to protect our vehicles from "them" then we wouldnt.

I started parking the same way and the dents magically reduced in numbers.

AlanN - could find some way to mount a recording image setup on your vehicle :). my lad does that everytime he goes out on his bike - he records each and every trip he makes then wipes it if there has been no collision. makes it easier to prove fault etc.

Al you gotta see the way I park my jumbo at car parks mate.

As no bay is big enough for it I normally hog 2 spots front and back or if there is plenty of space just park the van parallel and take up 5 bays 8)

Sorry to head about the head light protectors it vexes you when you think someone had the balls to touch your property! I was going mad when I had my wind deflectors stolen just after a week of fitting them :!:
