I see plenty of Range Rovers leaving my local multi story car parks with no problem at all.

Try the Mirvac Broadway shopping centre in Sydney and I guarantee any cars over 1.85m will scrap the ceiling at the end of the long ramp to Level 5 (the level where Greater Union is). There are plenty of previous scrap marks there.

It's the same deal with some of the older council carparks.

Interesting, I have been there before, but haven't really paid attention to it, will do next time.

The Double Bay council carpark is the same. I once saw a landcruiser having to deflating all four tyres to squeeze under the hang-sign and reverse out of the carpark.

Cars in the old days weren't that tall............................

You mean the split view screen from the S-Class?
