Watch where you park your car in London. A new skyscraper will ensure that your car is melting where you stand. No joke.

A skyscraper under construction, with the nickname “Walkie Talkie”, for quite a few problems in London. By the concave form of the building, solar radiation is collected and bundled down sent. This ensures that a certain part of the street below this building quite warm.

Someone who is exactly on that spot, his Jaguar XJ parked suffered the consequences of. When the man came back from a meeting that only an hour had gone, he saw that all the plastic parts of the car are distorted and he smelled a schroeilucht. Among other things, the door mirror, Jaguar badge and the cover of the rear window pillars were disfigured.

The contractor already had a note under the windshield wiper crammed with the question to contact. The damage of some 1,000 euros, will the contractor reimburse you. Someone who will be Vauxhall Vivaro, at the same place, had parked was also the victim of this new building:

“The van looks a total mess – every bit of plastic on the left hand side and everything on the dashboard has melted, including a bottle of Lucozade that looks like it has been baked.”

The municipality has a research set, and three parking lots that are in the danger zone are with pawns deposited, such as on the bottom of the photos. (via: cityam.com & bbc.co.uk)
