Trust me it's all about defensive parking. My top tip is to park across two bays. Very un-pc, but f it!

I'm with you on the defensive parking but watch out for someone who thinks you need cutting down a notch or two and decides to key your car. Happened to a mate of mine and I learned from his mistake.

This has got to be some sort of record.

I was off Haggard Way in Wandsworth this afternoon and clocked 7 GTIs in the same street which wasn't even that long! Probably 400 metres or so. It was ridiculous.

4 of them were Mk6 and 3 Mk5. 1 red and the rest black or grey. Seriously, did I miss out on a London GTI meet up or something?

Yeah, they went to the trouble of making sure the key covered three body panels too. He reckons someone saw his two bay parking and thought that he was a rich git who felt he owned the place to park in that way. Busy shopping centre and someone obviously wanted a space. Only mentioning it because it cost him over £1,400 to get the car resprayed and it only takes one ****** to dispense 'justice'. Would not want you to have the same pain.

All Black 5 door Golf R with black Tally wheels, sunroof, darkened windows. Looked quite amazing and aggressive. Those DRL LEDs made it look really menacing. Most impressive.
