@JonnyC<br />Just out of interest.  If a car is returned under the distance selling act, does that person end up as an additional owner on the car’s log book or will the seller normally wait the 14 days before sending it to the DVLA?

It’ll almost certainly have an extra owner as all the paperwork is done online when buying the car and paying RFL… When RFL stayed with the car after it was sold, a lot of dealers would process the V5 within a week or two, but not anymore.

If you try to park something inside there with regular ocurrance you’ll definitely be scratching it badly on the door frame on the way through

I used to have to fold the passenger side mirror in to get my cars into the garage years ago (tiny garage, not big cars) and that was a tightish 90deg swing in reverse to get in or out.
Also had to put a pad on the wall to get out of the drivers side (first car in that garage was a 3 door car, so longer doors.) Lived on a curve on a main road through the estate, so any car went in and out of the garage pretty much every time i used it.

Only time cars got scratched was when tossers scratched it. Never damaged them getting in or out of the garage.
