the owner of this shop said he has a car park behind his shop at the gate

Wow, thats quite the hole! - Can see why the supe didn't like that! Sorry to hear the cars been smashed after the progress you were making with it. Hope you get it sorted buddy, well done with the pics and such, should help your case a lot - not to mention the parking around the back then "no parking" signs. >
