    Aaah didn't know you were renting, that's fair enough.

    When I was looking at inner-city infill sites I kept on annoying the crap out of my gf because I'd always give so much floor area over to the garage haha.

    Such worth though.

    Haha, I've delivered to a couple of places in Salisbury Heights that have almost vertical driveways. Worst one I struck was at Stirling in the Adelaide Hills, it was that frickin steep, I did myself a groin strain just walking up the bastard.

    The Australia post guy stuffed a parcel into the letterbox last week, I honestly don't know how he managed to fit it in. Knew full well it was cause he didn't have to go up the driveway for a signature

    Only on a big angle. Go in straight and you will rip your bumper off.

    shiiiit, thats hilarious. You never fear floodwaters though.
    Bought a house a while ago with a very steep and slippery driveway downhill, problem is that with a small frontwheel drive car, you can only get up the hill (so out of your driveway) driving backwards otherwise your wheels just keep spinning. You certainly couldn't have any people in the car.
