Default PICS - "I have a Porsche Cayenne Turbo, I don't care where I park!!"



I took these last night (Thu 30 Oct).... just near my apartment in Exhibition Street, Melbourne!!

With a number plate and attitude like that.... you'd have to be - a word that rhymes with 'banker'?!

If ever you're in doubt as to whether it's a conspiracy or a foul-up ----- go for the foul-up every time.

From the evidence presented by these photos it's hard to know whether it's a case of blatant arrogance or just a stupid simple mistake.

The Cayenne is so ugly maybe he's hoping the Police will tow it away.

Yes, it's hard to fathom. If it's not a private personal or family thing the only clues we have to go on are. It's a Victorian plate, black and white, parked in Exhibition street.

Black and white with the letters "COLLI" would tend to indicate a Collingwood supporter but then what does the zero or Owe mean at the end?

Your kidding me right.... if the sign doesn't explain things simply enough to someone, then the 'KEEP CLEAR' letters would?!

It's just shear arrogance and the fact that a potential $100 fine, means nothing to the owner of a $200+K vehicle!!

I recently saw a Maserati parked in a no standing zone near my local movie cinemas (in western sydney).

I guess that they figure they are so rich a parking fine is nothing to pay, or that they no so many people that they can talk their way out of it?

Damn I'd love to carry around some big stickers saying "this is an illegally parked vehicle", some places do whack these huge stickers on your windows if you park illegally.

NO.

I agree that there is a high probability that it is a case of arrogance but we should keep our minds open to the small possibility that it was a mistake.

I'm sure we've all made a few parking blunders when driving at night for the first time in a strange new country where we don't speak the language.

I challenge you to find a legitimate parking spot in Tokyo or Bombay on your first night there.

No matter how many times I look at it, I still dont understand why Porsche chose this design in the first place.
