Would you ever get your MK5 valet parked?

[WhiteGTI]

As above really.

Specifically vote for the MK5, not any other car you own/aspire to own...

We will assume that the location is reputable, and that the valet parker dude isn't going to drive off with your car!

I'm just curious really..! I think I probably would if I was in the mood! But under normal situations then no!

Vote away!

Are you bored? 

I am too protective of cars though but went for the dependin on situation option.

Mike...I am very bored yes!

But I just saw a clip of a car being valet parked on the TV, so it made me wonder!
 

[08micsta]

Fairplay. I too am bored. I  can only handle so much studying about how terrible white people are. . .  On another note. I must agree that in sa i would not let anyone near our cars. But in some countries like australia and such i would. Its all about the situation. You give your car to someone down here and when you get it back it will have a 1.1 litre engine. No headunit. Rims or steering wheel. Lol

Depends on the situation really, if i had no option i would i guess i would have to give it to the valet guy with a stern warning on his life if anything happens to my car
i could imagine him flying down the ramp and smashing my front bumper to bits  and the start telling me it was like that when he got it

[Top Cat]

Yes, as long as i could sit in the passenger seat.

When you mention valet parking, I'm so reminded of the film Ferris Bueller's day off...

I dont think I would to be honest, only if I really had to! Don't get me wrong the MKV GTI is a well respected car but I dont think it is quite worthy of being valet parked

i was "stateside" in april, we went to a really nice japanses in brentwood, its near malibu in california.

Valet parking is obviously the norm there, so we didnt think anything of giving the guy the keys and walking away from our beast (dodge somethin or other with a big V8, all bark no bite)

We thought the guy must park hundreds of expensive cars all day, then crunch...

...he ran right into one of those concrete bollards, those BIG kerbs they like to use in the states.

he scratched all the bumper, but the rental company couldnt care less! we paid another 20 dollars or so for cover against that.
the car had about 1500 miles on it!!

The only way I would do this is if It was a reputable detailing company doing the valet, and I was aware of their washing and drying method's and the product's they use!

I think you got your wires crossed here mate as valet parking has nothing to do with detailing.

Greenouse is from Brum - They don't know what valet parking is in that neck of the woods. It probably sounds a bit gay to them

Which is why I voted no 

Im aware of the type of service a usual 'valet' service would supply, which is why I was so specific with my answer
