There are two Silver 182's - one being mine. There is also an arctic blue one without Cup packs and he is my mates brother and they both work there. I have seen a Silver 197 too and a few 172's.
Coming home today I saw a blue 172 with a double exhaust sticking out the back but that was on the Ring Road in Downend and they pulled off on a slip road into where there is an industrial estate. Was that you or someone else off here?
Edit: I have no idea which is the SW and NE carpark but all the cars mentioned above are in what us old timers call the "B" carpark - up by NH3/4.

I think there were two blokes in the car although I couldn't see the passenger as I was in the outside lane and they were in the inside. Anyone?
Anyhow I was one of the first people there to have an RS Clio. I talked them up all the time on the forums from way back in 2001 and now every bloody person has one. Most common car on site now which is annoying after everyone gave me a load of abuse for hyping them up.

I was sat in my car one lunchtime and two RAF blokes got into a car next to mine and the passenger just flung the door open and it bounced repeatedly off my door. I didn't do anything at the time cos you can't even breath on someone at that pathetic place because of all the stupid little bullying rules so I wrote down their number plate and would have keyed the hell out of their car later if there was damage. Turned out I had a load of paint from their door on my door but mine was undamaged!
I have had other people just get out with their brief case or the zips on their coat smashing against my car and they couldn't give a sh*t.
But yeah most people there can't drive for sh*t. I can follow a car from way back in Oldland and you can just see that it is being driven by a complete tw*t who hasn't got a clue what they are doing and I say to myself "I bet they work at our place" and 9 times out of 10 you follow them and they do!!! You also sit there for about 10 minutes every morning in the carpark waiting for someone to take a dozen attempts at parking straight.

LOL i know exactly what you mean. i TRY and get an end space as much as possible as i get in at 7.30 every morning, so at least only one side of the car gets abuse. i confronted a cyclist once who just came off the cycle path really quickly and nearly crashed into my door! he had the cheek to say i should have been watching him...yeh instead if the road - clever!!!
Which carpark do you go in? I used to go in the suspension bridge carpark but moved up to the other end last October. If you are in my old carpark then you have my permission to use my safe space that I used for 5 years. It is an end space but crucially the space on the unprotected side is positioned such that the person using it can drive straight in from one of the main roadways. I.e. they do not have to turn when going in or out.
Some girl in a saxo with zebra coloured seat covers always used to park in the space next to me. She is well cool cos if she got in before me she showed respect and didn't park in my space but went in her usual one next to mine! :star:
Check it out, go through the VCP and keep going straight ahead over the path then turn right and straight up into the space. You can see my space on the left and how easy it is for the person next to you to park! At 7:30 you might just get it!

I used to work in NH2. Once I drove in under the bridge behind some kid in my office. He drove off to park up in the other carpark and I went into the suspension bridge carpark. Some sod had stolen my space so I had to go for my backup space all the way up the top! I walked in and got to the stairs in the atrium at exactly the same time as the kid in my team!!!! So I reckon that suspension bridge carpark is quickest for you. What colour was your 106. Was it white?
