How to easily recognise your car in a large supermarket carpark

Recommended Posts

hahaha...I didn't realise there would be so many instances of innocent car-jacking in supermarket car parks...

It's not funny Mr Pete! :wave:

 

And we wonder why there are so many accidents, when instead of people having their wits about them when driving, some people by there own admission are clearly that dozy that they can't even find their own car in a car park! :roll:

Get a yellow car. It also helps if it is an old Suzuki Alto, then your teen children would prefer to walk or get the bus rather than being seen in it.

Hiya Mr B :wave:

 

I always have trouble finding my car...it's an age thing (or that's my excuse anyway)...A bad memory is a terrible thing...But so far..<touch wood>...I've never managed to car-jack yet...But give me time.

How about, when you see 'your' car (colour and make/model), unlock the door get in and then start cursing because the key won't turn in the ignition!

 

After a few goes, you look around a bit and seeing strange items in the car, realise that it is not yours after all. Get out, check registration and learn that there are only so many variations of keys in the world!

 

Then, scuttle away to find your own car again before being spotted and accused of trying to steal someone else's!

Not quite as bad but spent some time try to enter an identical model two cars away from mine.

Luckily the owner didn't appear .

I also once couldn't find my car in a large car park in Plymouth and and last year couldn't find which car park in Lyme Regis I'd left it.

Advance senility is setting in.

I leave the baby in a car seat on the roof!

 

Usually a nice group of people, police and social services gathered around my car by the time iv done a big shop.

 

Easy to spot!

Always hoping it doesn't drive off before you return.

One post just reminded me...I went to Manchester on a date once...I was running late because of traffic on the Woodhead...Anyway, once I arrived in Manchester, I was a bit flustered, and parked in the first city centre car park I came across...

 

After meeting up with 'said' fair lady, we decided to have a meal in her locality, which meant me driving there...She said where are you parked?...I said I've no idea!...We tramped around Manchester for an hour or more before I vaguely recognised the car park...I found my car eventually...It was a nightmare.

park alongside a nissan micra and when you come out of the supermarket just listen for the sound of car doors bashing dents into yours.
