[NSC] Where do you park your car?

[Shropshire Seagull]

If you use more than one car regularly, assume the one you use the most [privately - so not the works van you take home]

8 Acacia Gardens, Suburbia, England.

 

[LamieRobertson]

Oh dear..I normally get the chauffeur to do this

 

[dejavuatbtn]

Outside somebody else’s house?

I actually know someone who lived there!

 

[CP 0 3 BHA]

I wonder how many we'll get to before someone who actually uses their garage for its original purpose registers a vote?

24 and counting.

I keep the classic in the garage and the modern on the drive. But as I only had 1 vote and I use the modern more than the classic, I voted for drive.

 

[wellquickwoody]

Mr R Perrin?

Might as well have been!

Driveway.

I have a first floor extension built over the drive, and the gap between the pillars for that and the house, isn't even wide enough to get my car through it, to the garage! You could in theory get a Fiat500 or an (old) mini down there.

The garage houses a full size table-tennis table, lawn mower, tool cabinet, four bikes, and a rack containing about 15 pairs of football boots.

I did think of splitting "driveway" to "driveway [no garage]" and "driveway [no room in the garage]"

In hindsight it might have been useful to split out "Don't have a car" to include too young to drive ....

 

[Driver 8]

I had a garage built but there has never been a car in it!

I do store my motorbike, quad bike, push bikes and mowers in there though.

I am fortunate enough to have loads of space for parking.

 

[robinsonsgrin]

car goes to bed every night in the garage... fab in the frosty mornings.. no deicing required.

 

[spence]

Anywhere near Shoreham beach which is free

 

[Badger]

On a side note, has anyone noticed that UK garages are far too small?

The ones built 50+ years ago I can understand as vehicles were slimmer back then... but why do they build new garages which barely allow an inch either side?!

I used to work with a guy who bought a Honda Jazz because he didn't have a drive and it was one of the only cars which would fit in his garage.

 

[Chicken Run]

I’m fortunate enough to have off Road Parking for two cars!

 

[Herr Tubthumper]

Don’t have a car.

brilliant use of space.

I suppose that's another thing down to the Tories HT.

No. Down to Merkel and her excellent and cheap integrated transport policy. I have an s-bahn, u-bahn and 4 different tram lines on my door step as well as an excellent cycle lane network around the city (I cycle the 2k to work). Oh, and two tram stops and I’m connected to the regional and inter city trains. Rest of the time I get a taxi.

You should try integrated transport some time, it’s great.
