The biggest thing to watch out for is not to pull up too closely in a forward facing parking bay or you run the risk of clipping the front on the curb. You won't know it is too late until you hear the crunch.

 

Otherwise just take it slow over the speed humps and also watch out for dips in the road when exiting a driveway,

o i know them very well.lol

it's tradition to go over them sideways though isn't it.lol

 

Lol, yeah you are right :D

 

Multistories are a deffinate no no. I once tried the one behind Williams and Griffin in Colchester and got stuck on the first ramp lol. I had to get everyone to back up so I could get out and park it outside. :rolleyes:

Have a look at my garage and sig for pics with a do-luck on stadard hight.

 

Humps are no problem unless its a fu*king stupid council that has erected a major lump like the ones in our village.

I have stock bumper with 17's ad Blsein and Eibach setup and it's a bit of a nightmare mate.

 

Unless I'm doing 3-4mph over the speed bumps it'll scrape without fail on the plasic lip beneath the front bumper.

 

Once I completely forgot how low the car was and was pootling down the road at about 20mph and went straight over a large speed bump...........to my random surprse though I cleared the whole thing without a scrape and I have no idea why - bit of lift off maybe! :)

 

Just take it very slow and steady and try to avoid wherever possible Fat.;)
