Yepp!... this is the right way out of Finestrat with you big fat Mercedes, or one of those huge 4-wheel drives which seem to have become popular among lazy buggers... evidently thinking it gives their own fat belly a "sporty look".
Back in 1988, I drove a 280SE, Mercedes, and made a real ass out of myself in the Benidorm "old town", where I got stuck in an alley, which at the end was narrower than the track width of my car.
I managed to climb both left wheels up on the joke of an elevated sidewalk, and made it down to the road sign saying turn right... turn right my ass!
I bumped down from the sidewalk curb, and finally got totally stuck... loosing the left tail light in the process of trying to negotiate the corner and get out of the mess.
It was three o'clock in the morning... and finally, at 08:00 two small rescue trucks with cranes had me "airborne"... inching me around the corner producing a few bad scratchers on the car's right side.
Then... in a bar - five years later - I overheard a guy telling about a nitwit Norwegian asshole, who had blocked up
the whole "old town" with a bloody fat Mercedes "some years ago"... even his description of the driver was me...
jeeezzzess!.... I left for another bar.
