Re: Is it 'so' difficult to park ........

If you have to park next to someone, always try and pick a 5 door car as the doors are much shorter than 3 door models and so don't have to be opened as wide for the occupants to get out.

Mine has Recaro bucket seats and they are very difficult to get out of unless the door can be opened wide because you can't just slide out of them you have to climb out. When I first put my car in the garage of my new house, it is so narrow I couldn't get out of the car. I have to leave it on the driveway.
