I always take my D1 shopping and park it badly. The heavy duty front and rear bumpers and proper metal light guards are a match for most trolley attacks as well as poor parkers!! Other drivers also seem to be happy to give way to me when I pull out in front of them when needs must!Clubs Mantec, Tasmods, LEDS, AT2s on 18s, Maxxis Bighorns on 17s, Remote FBH, BAS.

Got there and parked up in one of the many vacant disabled bays 8) ...dragged my left leg like John Merrick towards the front entrance as I knew there must have been a chariot with my name on it waiting... 8)
I hadn't anticipated the army of Rotary Club members with their fake Santa Sleigh made out of a Unigate milk float and belting out some vague christamas song that sounded more like the soundtrack to a porn flick. I tried skirting around them but they had night vision .... so I was fecked all round .
I turned and made a run back towards the motor ...peeps who had only just seen me dragging my leg were looking skyward saying it was a festive miracle ...but just as I got to the motor a lone Rotary elf opened up on me with his bucket full of change ...rat tat tat tat tat tat rang out all around
I'd been hit and held my hand to my jean pockets as I dragged myself to the door of the motor ..." I don't have any change mate" I screamed with tears streaming down my face ....and just as he raised the bucket for a final shake to finish me off ....I pulled out a white hanky and started to sing the Italian national anthem. His shocked expression gave me the second I needed to jump back into the motor and fearing that they had fired up the chase float ... I was off foot to the floor.
A lucky escape I'm sure you will agree.....I think I'll go in the morning instead. 21 year LR veteran > D2 GS 2003 > D3 S 2006 > D3 HSE 2009 > D4 HSE 2013 > D4 HSE 2015 > D5 HSE 2018 > DS HSE R-Dynamic P300e 2021

if you are near tesco in llandullas landrover d3 owners have a specially reserved space,it's marked out as motorcycles only ,nobody really cares that you are parked there apart from the motor cyclists,I never worry about parking when I'm shopping,it's trolley rage that's the problem,good luck
