But imagine having to pull of a high-speed parking move, using only the handbrake and the streeting wheel, to skid into a space with just five inches to spare - or 13.1cm - a gap shorter than the length of an average pencil.

However, driven on by brotherly competition, Alastair and John Moffatt, from Gloucester, managed to do exactly that when they beat the tightest parallel parking world record.
