Before becoming a student-bum - the carpark at my old job used to look rather nice IMO ;D  At this point, the black mini was mine  |

Is it a prerequisite for Halfords staff to park with angled front wheels? |

currently actually park whichever I'm in in the yard instead (hold-over from driving the Landy with no roof)
Also Ary doesn't actually Fit in a space, as the white lines you can see are the longest they get

As for the DAF there weren't enough parking spaces so I made my own ;D

i'm a uni student, main job other than that is gigging with my band, so that's a bit varied. gigs at festivals and rallies can be a real pita, in this one i had to ford a stream and drive between tractor tracks to get there.  she looks a bit misplaced outside the house i share with 2 mates too.  |

My colleagues own among them... '67 Shelby Mustang 350 Triumph Stag Edsel Collection of early minis Recently restored Mini pickup Mazda RX7 FD Porsche Cayenne v8 turbo (modern, but what an impressive noise from a 4x4!) E38 BMW 7 series And of course my GT polo... Quite a few have been in the staff car park, but never all of them at the same time so no decent pictures. Were all car nuts as part of the job, so nothing ever "sticks out" in the car park as far as were concerned, but we all go and have a look around when someone brings something in weve not seen before |

When I started this job I had a tuned up 306 D-Turbo, and I got an email saying my parking privilege was revoked because of all the black smoke off-boost. To be fair, I could barely get in over the speedbump at the entrance. They kick you out now if you drive a 4x4 or don't reverse park, unless your a manager that is. Apparently, as a major energy company who promote energy efficiency, staff have to be seen to be energy-conscious and environmentally aware. They even banned my 106 GTI for being too loud!
