where my van is stored it is between 2 other vans and a van behind behind me and I get it into its spot 1st time everytime and even the legs wind down onto the blocks I left there from before.

How do I do it I hear you ask.......

Well...........











I have 2 patio slabs both sides of the wheels on both sides. (4 slabs in total). I fiddled a bit when I 1st parked the van up and then put the slabs infront and behind the wheels. When I reverse into the gap I know that when the van goes over the 1st slab and sits in between the other 2 I am in the perfect place.  also when I towed the van out the first time I did it in little bits ie a ft at a time and sprayed white paint on the floor and so ended up with a curve that the van wheels follow so I know the near side of the van at the back doesnt hit the van the opposite side. I always reverse in round a right hand corner so I can easily see the white line.

This maybe of some help to you in the future when on your own.

I am exchanging on a house near Daventry this Friday and fafing around with a rockery on Saturday so I can move a shed the weekend after and hinge a fence pannel to get my caravan into the garden. So I would have been close enough to help.
