Park Distance Control to no avail for that one. However, as you can see in the pictures below (which I snapped in disbelief once I got out of the car), I got away with a lucky near miss: did not hit or scratch any part, but was way too close for comfort (see also: http://www.1addicts.com/forums/showthread.php?t=609647).


That car was screaming !!!
