Default It's an MG Rover Thing - They Do Not Understand.

My wife does not appreciate the need to locate the best available parking space for Wurzel, I do not think they undersatand it is an MG Rover thing.

Well, when you're looking at around £60 to have a supermarket 'dink' removed...... it pays to park out of the way.

Yes, you park away from everyone else, but when you return there's always someone parked to close to you

Normally a van or a big 4x4 when the rest of the car park is empty.

Nothing worse then going too Morrison's just before closing time too grab too eat cheap meats and pork pies.

You park furthers away from every beeper from the store and by the time you finish there's a few parked next too you.

and its only 15 mins.

You think what the beep there's plenty of spaces that are empty and instead you choose next too me why do you need my beeping car give you reference too park.

Come on some of these drivers really do need a lesson or two.

I do this just simply I don't my cars damaged and yet apart from us no one else has caught too this way of thinking.

If we ever go somewhere in the Rover, Mrs Teflon reckons by the time I've found a suitable "Rover safe" parking spot we're further away than when we set out. "It'd be quicker to walk" is her usual response when I suggest taking the '75
