    It's not easy, is it? I'm glad that the sound wasn't working, I hate the sound of breaking glass!

    Must be something wrong with my system - up/down/left/right arrow keys only move the vehicle a minute amount and then - nothing!

    Which is a bummer, as parking's my thing!! Well, has to be driving my tank....

    Thank goodness there were no pedestrians about or there would be a fleet of ambulances due to turn up any minute! :shy:

    Actually, Ned, I'll admit to knowing ****-all about the mechanics but I can change a wheel and tow, plus parallel parking holds no horrors for me - mainly because my very good driving instructor all those years ago told me every trick in the book (shop windows, choose space next to shiny cars etc etc)!

    However, I do admit to being wussy these days with the truck - it's very long and // parking can be dicey!!

    I LOVE towing - for some reason I've always found it really easy - but the only boxes I've ever driven are little two horse ones, so my first forray into a three horse will be interesting......

    Jules no was not meant to offend only to wind up I after all the years of driving ARTICS 50'+ LONG all over the country would be ashamed to have put my score on here regards that test, but wouldn't something put on by an insurance company make you want to have bumps!!! to highlight their protection cover so read nothing into the test or the comments................................

    I presume she means using the reflections, Brian, as opposed to backing into the shop windows.

    Now, I thought you'd know about that little trick, LordH!

    When High St parking, use the reflection of your vehiclein shop windows to avoid shunting into the car behind or in front of yours. Similarly, when parking in some of those mean NCP car parks with virtually zip room, using the reflection of your car in the one next to yours can also help.

    S'pose it's because of having a tow bar on the back of the truck has made me very careful - it's all too easy to rearrange some poor unsuspecting soul's grill or bumper if not ultra- careful...
