 Somehow I always tend to do the "was that a space" fancy park
However it is illegal some places here...in the city, where the spaces are angled at 60 degrees

It is also a cheaply made, fast to depreciate, badly service hunk of GM crap.

"Fancy" parking assumes you have nothing to put in the boot/trunk.... 
It is an annoying waste of time when some one in front of you insists on backing into their space.
BTW - any one have that link to the Japanese guy evading the cop by doing a 35mph hand brake fancy parkign turn into a parking space as the cop drives past?

This whole topic should be renamed Smart parking, not fancy parking. It makes it sound stupid and pointless.
