wow god that is too close lol
one thing i really hate about paying for a bare metal respray im afraid of parking near anything haha. my other car on the other hand im alright with but my girlfriend needs some advice from you anika she was practicing for her p's test cause she has been very slack and been on l's for like 3 yrs lol... so anyway i have a new front bar and fog lights for my commodore now :-( but least she parks with a bit of space now.
one thing i love with driving mini's... you dont really have to care if you have any room to park it will fit. you can even go through some of them poles that stop you from going down lanes and stuff lol

My car had a silly little parking beeper that let me do things like this. It was ugly so when I had the rear bar resprayed I got rid of it... then promptly scraped my new paint two weeks later on a set of steps I couldn't see, but that my beeper would have warned me about!

Aaron, it was just barely touching! Was on her L's for 3 yrs? wow that's slack! push her my way hehehe

I love backing into a carpark space but its taken me a while to get use to due to the size of the soarer. I still haven't mastered the front yet

Touch parking is standard within a dealership. New paint doesn't really crack easy..

I wish i had my other phone here, looks as good a thread as any to show my reverse parrallel parking shots :-)

I have quite a few with less than 12" in front and behind to park the car in, with cars both in front and behind. It was standard procedure at my old job as parking was limited, and the only spaces were the ones where people didn't think they'd fit in between cars. Those were the ones I'd take.

Anika, that doesnt look like skill but a lucky near miss :-) actually it kinda looks like you made contact. keep practicing.

No I can assure you I was aiming and it did not make contact at all.

Photo doesn't do it justice I guess and the angle I took it makes it look like it is touching.
