I need to visit my Dad in hospital over the next few days, I would like to go in my Gallardo as its a decent run, but I am a bit worried about where to park it. The hospital is here EX10 8EW

Cheers

It seems to be full of pensioners, I think they can be worse than chavs sometimes! i.e. opening car doors into other cars etc. I am just gonna have to risk it I guess! The drive is worth it. I don't fancy going in my 1.2 Clio!

that's a good idea, book lunch in the hotel nearby park it outside tip the doorman to look after it and get a taxi to the hospital

I had a look, it would mean I had to walk a whole half a mile, I doubt they have Taxi's down there, probably horse and carts still. Thanks for the ideas!

We would be delighted to welcome you to our humble town which surprisingly boasts electricity now and a few metalled roads. Some of us even own Maseratis! By far the most common vehicle is the mighty Datsun Micra so be careful where you park.
I also understand that the hospital has qualified doctors and nurses.
By the way, watch out for the pensioners looting and rioting.

Well, I went there today, it was mental, never seen so many pensioners. Anyway, I ended up parking in a public car park. The guy at the kiosk gave me a special space away from the riff raff, and this was without actually asking him. He even put bollards around my car as added protection.
