Here’s one from last week. Obviously put off by the ugly end of the D5.
BTW - I was parked at the end of a line, so no car on my drivers side.

The driver has used your vehicle as a guide and so has parallel parked next to you. If you'd been straight in your slot, they'd have been too in theirs. This using other people as a guide to positioning is why I think people will park next to a car in an otherwise empty car park.Visiting from rrsport.co.uk

Similar in Costco on Friday, anyone that has been to Costco knows the parking spaces are generous, guy in a Merc had five attempts at reversing into a space, in the end he gave up and left it taking up two spaces.

That’s why I added there was no parking space next to my drivers side and it was an enlarged spot, so I had the room to be a bit squint. I was well within the line next to the other car.
That apart, it’s the closeness to my car I am moaning about. The person had tons of space the other side of him.
Probably got a point about using mine as a guide.
Took the photo simply because I was expecting marks from someone opening their door onto my vehicle.
Moo, since when does a DS have those headlights? of course it’s a D5, you should go to Spec Savers!

I think I’ve got a shot from the rear end if you’d like?
