Not as embarassing as my Brother-in-law at a petrol station. He's in a hurry, fills up, slings the appropriate note on the counter, runs out, opens the car door, jumps in and.....
























......realises he's in the back seat!

I posted this thread on a Porsche Forum too and one of the best ones was below



Thats hilarious!! not in Porsche but similar happened to a mate whilst on our way to a wedding. He was quite hammered and hasn't got the first clue about cars, we stopped at a BP station for some quick nibbles, we then watched him stagger back out to the forecourt (suited & booted) and proceeded to get in the backseat of a white Laguna in the next bay. He was in there a good 10 seconds before getting booted out by some granny sat in the passenger seat. We were f'kin killing ourselves laughing in the shop...

It wouldn't have been so bad if we were in a similar car but we were in a black M5!! Still makes me crack up now...
