HK52 KNZ
Silver Peugeot 106
Residents report that this Peugeot appeared tucked away on Stanmer Street (in between Stanmer Park Road and Stanmer Villas in Hollingdean) around August 2023.
The vehicle displays an expired resident parking permit for Zone V, meaning that the owner lives in Hannover and Elm Grove but has decided to leave their vehicle in Hollingdean rather than renew their permit for that area.
At the time of publishing, this vehicle had not moved in the past several months and had started to deteriorate with a flat tyre and plants growing from its seals.
There are hundreds of unwanted vehicles parked in Hollingdean for this same reason: the owners no longer drive it enough to warranty paying for a permit for it, so they dump it in the 'free' parking in Hollingdean instead.
This unfairly leaves the local residents to face the additional congestion, noise, and pollution that being used as a car park brings with it, whilst also finding it increasingly difficult to find parking for themselves, as every available space fills up with these older, semi-abandoned vehicles from outside the area.
