They have a cool parking system in Korea, however it's above ground. Think of a sort of elongated ferris wheel... drive in down the bottom into a steel cradle, then around the mechanism goes. It takes up the footprint of about 6-8 cars, but can hold many dozens.
This one is all enclosed and very tall (around 15 storeys), I did have another pic floating around of a smaller one where you could see the mechanism but I cannot seem to find it. |

Absolutely brilliant. Probably a large initial cost meaning we won't see it for a very long time in this country.

I think your right DANNY, would be better suited to a consistent all day parking situation not a Event Set it would be disastrous.
