I am all for some way of getting rid of these free loaders, but why the hell should I have to pay to park on land that I actually own? 50p sounds very good value for money when you break it down over a year, but in the real world, its still £25 per car per year. So if you have 2 cars....you can do the math Im sure. And you can bet your life that the price will NEVER go down, only UP. Just be careful what you are signing up for, as it could cost you a lot of money in the coming years.
Just think. If in 3 years time the price per car ends up as £80, then you are paying a heck of a lot of money to park on your own property. 2 cars = £160 per annum. I dont pay that much in car parking fees when I park elsewhere for a year! One of the reasons I bought my house was because I had a parking space outside my house that I actually own, not rent.
How about this. We simply get the owners of the train station car park to lower their prices. If you think about it, all we would be doing by having a system like this is passing the freeloaders car park fees directly onto ourselves. All they will do is park elsewhere. They pay nothing to park somewhere else, and we end up paying to park outside our own properties.
Badpeg Sorry I haven't replied to your post. I have had to deal with a loss in the family. When I get an opportunity I will respond to your comments in more detail. Kevin...

There has to be another way on this.
