Owner of £85k Porsche slapped with 10 parking tickets after he failed to display permit in his own space
The owner of a luxury sports car is facing a fine of hundreds of pounds despite parking in his own space – because he failed to display his permit.
The black Porsche 911 has ten penalty notices plastered across its windows – amounting to a £400 bill – which could DOUBLE if not paid within 21 days.
Five parking tickets are placed under the windscreen wipers, four on the driver’s window and one in the small rear driverside window.
The £85,000 car belongs to a man living in North Point, a block of expensive, waterfront flats in Gloucester Docks.
The neighbouring car park is believed to be owned and run privately.
One neighbour, who asked to remain anonymous, said: ‘He just doesn’t give a ****.
