Bit off topic this and not Skyline-related per say, but since I've taken ownership of a Skyline I have had no end of "picky" behaviour from various authorities.
Take for example parking. I have been parking in the same multistorey for over a year now since working for the company I'm currently with (they don't have private car parking spaces). The rule is you're allowed to park there for a maximum of 3 hours, and cannot return within a 3 hour period. Needless to say, working from 9am - 6pm equals a lot more than 3 hours. I have got away with it for the past year by moving my car from one part of the multistorey to the other side (monitored by a different person) at lunch. In all this time I have got about 4 parking tickets.
Since owning a Skyline, and parking in exactly the same place I have gotten one fixed penalty from the Police for parking outside the cashpoint for 10 minutes (believe me, even though its double-yellows, everyone parks there all the time) and 2 multistorey parking tickets in the past week.
It's so frustrating.
Has anyone else had any experiences where someone has blatently picked on you because of the car you drive?
