So glad I’m not driving my 911 in the UK

I preface this by saying I lived in the UK for 30 years b4 moving to the US.
My wife and I just spent 10 days in the UK on vacation. It’s hard to find any car without the rims beat up.
I don’t remember the streets being so narrow but they are. In addition on street parking is common and reduces driving lanes in many areas to just one car wide.
My commiserations to my UK brethren

I rented a Mercedes E class for our vacation with the AMG package (low profile tires) - the rims were so beat up I would have been embarrassed to drive it here in the US.
US roads are almost nirvana compared with the UK. I’m so glad I don’t have to drive my 911 across the pond
