Can you imagine what the parking situation would be like on our road or yours if they did?

And the cost to the environment in the manufacturing of all those extra cars. Not that the government would worry, they'd have loads of extra vehicles to get tax from :roll:
On the subject of the OP.....
It wasn't that long ago when you could go out for a drive for the fun of it! I have an MG Midget that hasn't seen the road since 1991. I couldn't even use it now because it only had about 2" ground clearance and it would never get over the endless speed bumps! These useless piles of tarmac never existed in 1991!
Just think about it...
In 1991 there were no 'safety cameras', no speed bumps, no independant camera vans..... I'm sure the list is endless. And 1991 isn't *that* long ago.
I could insure the Midget when i bought it at the age of 17. These days, if a 17 year old wanted to insure a Mazda MX5 or similar, they would laugh at him! What's changed?

Its funny really. As time has gone by, my clothes seem to have shrunk, something seems to be stealing my hair, and Mars bars have got smaller!
Has anyone else suffered similar problems? :?

Nope! It doesn't last long enough! When I was younger, a pint seemed to last for ages. Now? Gone in a flash!
