Because of the total LACK OF RESPECT, a lot show for other peoples property, I always take up 2 carpark spaces
Saves the door dings!!

Been told off a few times.... mostly by the cloth-cap brigade

I don't see a problem with parking over 2 spaces if you're making an effort to park out of the way, and it's not too busy. A month or so ago I saw a merc parked in the centre of 4 spaces! Now that's taking the Micky.

I always park as far away from store as poss and in two spaces. No disrespect to the older generation but the amount of times ive seen old dorris drag her trolley down other peoples cars and open her door as fully as possible makes me do what i do. The wife moans about the 3mile walk from car to shop enterance tho

I dont mis-park, I simply park further away than 10 feet from the door where most people cram their ****boxes, problem solved.

This. Park further away from the entrance and don't park next to **** cars/vans and you'll be fine. Oh and only shopping in Waitrose helps. Certainly kept my car damage free anyways (touch wood).

Yep, I park as far away as I can so no other git parks next to me. Saying that, the weekend just gone I had no choice and coming back to the car, the woman next to me arrived also. I said to her, you go ahead, I'm just going into my boot to get some bags. So what did she do, open her passenger door and then rested it against the side of my car as she pissed about gggrrrr I asked her politely to remove her door from my car but I mean, c'mon, the cars were not even close and don't do it when I'm there also.

I had a 2008 Astra VXR Nurburgring Edition and always parked that as far away as possible where there's no other cars, I'd go in, do my shopping, come back out again to find suddenly everyone who wanted to go shopping had now parked next to or around my car...
