There's a picture in the print edition. The aim couldn't have been better if it had been placed there using a crane. Seems you have to think of everything when parking these days.

I blame global warming.

Yeah, it must have been tough working out how to get that self propelled vehicle from spain to the uk... How did the moron come up with the idea of using a boat. You could drive it for 200 quids worth of petrol and a 17 quid ferry ticket.

Even the ferry from spain to portsmouth would have been a fraction of 5k.

That's what I did with my LR. Bought whilst the worse for cheap wine I ended up driving it accross Spain. Total cost including a return ticket on a Ferry (conned them I never came back !) was in the region of 300 quid. SVA in the UK after buying various bits and bobs to bring it up to UK spec.
