The ramps from the road leading to the upper level parking areas have enough clearance for my 90 too. Wouldn't want to risk going into the ground level car park though. Tom

One word - SECURITY
That part of South Yorks [Sheffield/Barnsley/Rotherham] is a hot spot for defender thefts, so make sure you have every security device imaginable Guns and Landrovers .... anything else is irrelevant. |

Best way is to drop them off early on Saturday morning and come beating with me. I HATE Meadow hell with a passion and I must be the world's worst shopper. If I have to go I usually park in the Marks and Sparks car park but my 90 isn't lifted or got a roof rack on.

I've been in at the ground floor then up the ramps to the open air parking at the top with no problem. 110, no rack

I often take my 110 to Meadowhall, I always park where I've marked the red circle in the picture below, which is a ground level parking area. The double story parking areas have height restrictions which I can't get under with my roof rack on. There are tall posts with CCTV cameras and I always look where they are facing and park within their view...

Thanks for the advise Warpig, when I went to Meadowhall the other weekend, I had a Freelander 2 courtesy car, as I had to have a new EGR valve fitted, so in the unfortunate eventuality I have to go again I will know where to park Cheers Mate Keith |
