    It doesn't exist in my truck, the thing has the turning circle of a boat.

    There's a BMW that does park for you.  They had it on top gear once.  I can afford one of those lol. 

    When I do get my own car it won't be that much adapted.

    Lol, didn't it hit the fence at the side of the studio though and the front of the car was still haning about 4ft out of the space? Great programme though

    Gonna run
    Gonna scream
    Gonna crawl round on your knees
    When you realize that no one's gonna measure up to me
    Doesn't matter 'cause I'm over it now

    My instructor told me to drive up next to the car so that your bonnet is about a foot in front of the other one. Go back straight until your wing mirror is level with the back window of the other car, turn your wheel in the direction you want to go until your car is at a 45 degree angle, continue to go in until you start to see the kerb in your wing mirror then straighten the car up.

    Seems to work for me although i don't think i quite need to go so far forward in the beginning.

    I couldn't do it on my test and I can't do it now
    Well I can but I always end up a mile away from the curb !!

    I don't want to be anything other than what I've been tryin to be lately
    All I have to do is think of me and have peace of mind
    I'm tired of looking 'round rooms wondering what I gotta do
    Or who I'm supposed to be
    I don't want to be anything other than me
