Parent and child space - disabled driver

  • I have to say, I don't use parent and child spaces. I don't have kids, but I frequently have the nephews and nieces, since they were small, and I just figure that my parents got along fine without parent and child spaces so why on earth do we need them, unless like the OP you have a disabled child and a wheelchair to manoeuvre etc. Maybe if I'm a harassed mum one day I'll see the value in them!
    Car loan £4500 - paid off early July 2013
    Personal loan £4000 - paid off early June 2013
    Credit card debt of £400 remaining - nearly there!

    We run two business one a ironing service so the car is used to collect ironing. The other business is catering so need to collect stock etc from wholesalers etc etc.

    A small car will simply not do that job.

    So as your businesses do not require any off-roading then you don't need a 4x4, you can easily get the same boot space with an estate car.

    At the end of the day I couldn't care less if you drive a 4x4, but just thought I would point out it's a choice and not a need! :p

    We had that saab before they built the Tesco :p And my OH is 6ft 4......there is no oversized car.


    And i bet feeding a family of 6 (hence the people carrier) my weekly bill was twice the size of a good portion of their customers. :D

    So's your child benefit from the sound of it!
