  1. anthony1984 many thanks for your post. I drive aJaguar XJ8 which is just too long to fit into a "standard" parking bay eaven if I park right up to the car in the bay in front and I cannot use a parking bay if there is a car in the bays to either side as I cannot get out of my door! I usually park a long way away from the store enterance and walk as there is less chance of getting your car side dinked. He gave me a ticket ( invoice) for using two parking bays. I should have taken a picture with my phone befor a drove away but I was so annoyed that I just left. Parking in two bays was acctually the front NS of my car was over the dividing line of the bays by about 10 inches. There was a barrier on my side (drivers) the bay in front was empty and the bay to the side was enpty so I couldn't see the problem. I had parked at the very end of a row at the end farthest away from the store. As of yet I have not received any letters or requests to pay. Thanks Richard
  2. I have just had a "short" conversation with the jobsworth in the carpark at Morrisons, Aylesbury but he didn't give me a ticket for not paying as it is a free car park, he gave me one for not having all of my car within the parking bay ! I wanted to explain that it would be impossible for me to do that as my car is longer than their parking bays ( Jaguar XJ8). They are willing to accept £40 if I pay within 14 days. Now if the car park had have been busy I could see his point but it was almost empty and I always park well away from the entrance to avoid the door dingers. It took me less than 10 mins to make my purchase so he must have run over as soon as I walked away from the car. Does anyone know if they take pictures of the car as I thought it better to drive away before I lost my temper and swore at him!! They will have to drag me through every court in the land befoe I pay this.
