Right across our front step and a view out of the window.
Got a small car and a small van and a emptyish garage.
I think I will find a way to open their garage and then push one inside.
But then both are crap drivers.
-
If they're both Taxed ad MOT'd then no reason not to park them on the public highway ;) ;)

Does your house front straight on to the road? this is often a problem in terrace houses without a front garden, just be thankful it is not a big van, not much you can do I am afraid...... :( :(
-
In our street we have the same Issue. Not a lot can be done but thankfully the neighbours round by us are courteous enough to park outside their own houses unless the street is busy.
-
If they are not actually REALLY blocking your access, and both are taxed and insured, and your only real gripe is the view / you dont like it.
Then unlucky im afraid. They are doing nothing wrong.
If you are on good terms, mention it, they may park alternatively....
If not, dont, it will get worse just to annoy you :y

some sharp metal dust on their hood will solve the problem.. ;D

My daughter lives in road of terraced and thankfully they have an unwritten code about keeping to their own front doors. Those with 2 cars (my daughter included) park one outside their house and the other where there is a spare slot either where there are no houses or where the house does not need the space outside front door. We observe this as visitors as well and is peaceful. Only problem is all the driving schools use the road as well which is a pain...

we have same problem around here...people park like w@£"!rs....i have a LWB transorter and i park it quite easily...my neighbour uses the same amount of space too park his tart wagon a fiat panda...unbelivable :y

its been 20 years we are having parking problems in our road,
I finally managed to arrange parking space for my cars.. but mostly some tw*ts park randomly and block the road exit.. the reason is , neighbours can never unite and solve the problems.. >:( >:( >:(

Shared private driveway with triple garage at end, ours is full but one car, middle is similar, but end house as nearest garage - which is more or less empty and 2 smallish vehicles.
We could keep our caravan on our section but we try to be reasonable. As our neighbour said in July to the miseries in the end house when they were moaning about the caravan - brought back for a holiday - I was in hospital!

nothing wrong: nothing illegal actually

Taxing and MOT'ing means we can use the road, not park on it. ???

My house is the only one up here with a drive and garage so I just sit back and watch the entertainment it not a very big road and parking is tight, some of the stunts and fights over it all has had me i tears ;D. Not funny for those involved but all part of getting through day.

move house. simple and solved lol
my biggest problem finding a new house is parking and storage.

Theres one neighbour in my terraced street who owns 2 land rovers,1 citreon,he has 2 blue badges 1 which belonged to his now deceased wife.Just before she died he had the council place a disabled parking space outside his house for HER.
He also has a blue badge and uses another disabled space near his house,but theres bugger all wrong with him,if and when he moves one of the rovers he parks the citreon in the bay. He has a double garage at the rear of his house that isn't used.
Thats what you would call really inconsiderate to your neighbours I think,also one house has FIVE cars between them,it's hell to park in this street.
Alfie,

Report him for fraudulent use of a Blue badge. ;)
-
in york nearly all the terraced streets have to pay for a parking permit to park outside their own house and thats just for one car >:(
luckily im ok or otherwise havent a clue where i would park all of mine :P

I thought I'd lucked out when I moved here, but sadly not.. a little end cul-de-sac with about five visitor spaces on one side (where there's no house) - unfortunately in just over a year it's gone from easy to park on my own driveway (two cars wide, almost two cars long, double garage at the end of it) to a slalom around everyone else's vehicles..
There's the (rented) house next door which appears to now have three families living in it with five vehicles between them (people carrier for her and the sprog, 5-series for 'him', decorators van for 'granddad', Renault for 'grandma' and now a Citroen for 'random other bloke' - the drive only has space for one, so the rest fill the visitor spaces) and the builder the other side who parks his 4x4 outside his gates, half across my drive, because he's too idle to open the gates and use his driveway; which is the biggest driveway in the street and the only gated one.
Of course I know that if the (rented) neighbour moves out, the builder will probably start parking his two LWB sprinter vans and his tipper bed truck in the visitor spaces again - and it's much easier to slalom around cars than two 9m long vans!
More than once I've had to reverse the length of the road to get out, because it's impossible to turn around.. but there's nowt I can do besides move house.

As some will know: the dogs and I relocated here from a VERY rural farm (so we`re unused to 'parking-wars' possibilities) but have found considerate neighbours in each adjoining house and on-street parking seems not an issue (probably because its too dangerous!) ;D
......but it`s not Christmas yet is it! ::)
Sadly, my house`s unusually narrow through road would seem to be "on the way" to the police pursuit-driver training school ::) and the FIA under 17`s test-circuit >:(.....ah well; at least I wont be shoveling snow for weeks-on-end this winter! ;)

I used to live in an area of terraced streets in Bristol, and many of the houses were rented so there might be 2 or 3 cars per house.... ::) Parking was a complete nightmare, and often had to park 2 or 3 streets away :( Not what you want after a 15 hour shift and it's cold and wet!! >:(
