Spotted - Red MK7 GTi 5 Door - Norwich

Erm... sounds like they fail to understand concepts like time and space.  Have you tried to explain to them?

What's wrong with that if driving close to their place of work means braving a busy town centre, maybe struggling to find a parking spot and then paying several quid for a days parking?  I know a couple of people who used to do a similar thing, saved them time and money.

This sounds like this thread belongs on the old peoples home forum for park and ride 

it started as a GTi spotting and ended up as park and ride merits !!!

Why not just walk the mile to work?

It was far more than a mile from the P&R into town.  All I know is, relative to them driving the car into town and parking for the day, it was around a third of the cost, saved them sitting in stop-start traffic, and often got them into work quicker because of the bus lanes.

I would say fair enough and good on them. can't see why people are getting so bothered about it

Aye, but it's a kinda' dull subject and off-topic mcmaddy

Well not Norwich, but I saw my first GTI on the road so to speak today. Parked a couple of miles outside Wimborne, Dorset a Tornado Red, HX13...

Anyone here?
