17 Day European Delivery Honeymoon with my Imperial F30 335i 6MT/ April 2012

sonicbimmer19 · 03-17-2013, 11:11 AM

I want to ask some Europeans on this forum... I see some street parked cars are literally inches (centimeters) away from car in front of and behind them. Those cars are physically impossible to pull out without hitting the other car. Is getting bumper to bumper hit common in Europe?
Just in case, in the States, street parking is rather rare except big cities like LA

hitting each other's bumper is not only expected, but required... a parking spot is such a hot commodity overthere, the least you are going to worry about is your bumper... :P

i am so glad i live here now :

I don't think so. Reading about your journey "kept me alive" while I waited to take my own. It was an epic report!
