So I've just been down to my local. Tuesday night isn't a busy night so the car park was pretty empty. There was only one car there when I parked up so I parked behind it...usually the safest place. When I came out somebody had parked a fiesta right behind me. Why!!?? They could have parked anywhere else and they choose there!!!! It wasn't even a space!!!!
The same seems to happen wherever I go. I usually park as far away from everyone as possible but people are still mystically compelled to park next to me!!!
Leave my E60 alone.
OK, rant over. By the way I just managed to get the car out...

LOLZ that is soo funny, i think some people do it on purpose, when they see a nice car and want to be a jackass by giving you hard time.
Thank god for parking sensors.

Next time you wont park so close to the car in front eh 
Still no excuse for people being an arse, especially in all that open space
