Sorry Vman for stealing your thread title...but I'm in the same boat, although not through injury!
Got a new job, all good, but then found I can't opt out of the company car scheme

Not to worry, I decided I wouldn't pay company car tax, meaning I only use the work hack for work

Then the crappy management company at my flats comes into the equation and dictates, in almost Gestapo style, that I'm only allowed the one parking space at my apartments.

So the situation now is that;
The Golf has had several parking tickets from some arsehole who thinks he can throw his weight around, my girlfriend needs somewhere to park, and I've managed to negotiate with a fellow business resident to use a space on evenings and weekends. The gist being, no space for the Golf.

So it's currently at my parents house, hiding away until I find some new digs, and I'm stuck with a Focus naffmobile.

(in fairness it's not too bad but compared to the ED35 it's rubbish!)
