We've been embroiled in a 'parking war' with our neighbours for 18 months - they think it's THEIR spot... but we live on a public road

  • Small business owner, Ellie, revealed her partner had reached boiling point
  • She alleged her neighbours claim the section of public road is 'their spot'
  • The mother also claims they refuse to park more than five to ten metres away 

A woman and her partner have become embroiled in a 'parking war' with her neighbours after they parked mere inches away from their car for months on end.

Ellie, 27, alleged the ongoing feud with her neighbours has been ongoing for over 18 months.

In a clip, which has now amassed a staggering 1.8 million views, the small business owner revealed her partner had reached boiling point with fellow street residents.

Their neighbours reportedly believed the section of public road was 'their spot' and would use both of their cars to block other residents from parking there.

'My other half is having wars with my neighbours and I don't know whether to say it's petty or to say fair enough,' the mother said.

'They like to park right up against our car. They also like to move their cars so no one else can get in because they believe it is their spot even though it is a public road,' she explained.

In another update, Ellie showcased the white Audi parked bumper to bumper with their Ford with barely a hair's breadth between the two.

Explaining how her neighbours used their Audi to take up two spots while they used their other car to collect fish and chips, Ellie said her fed-up partner decided to retaliate.

According to the small business owner, her partner decided to reverse closely to her neighbour's Audi so that they couldn't move forward, meaning the neighbour's second car would have to park elsewhere.

Adding how her neighbour inched even closer to them, she explained: 'She took four attempts to get it close enough that she wasn't touching us.''

But instead of parking more than five metres away from their home, her neighbours decided to mount the curb with their second vehicle.

'A little update for you all he rather ramp the curb than just walk five metres to ten metres down the road and to his house than park properly,' she said whilst showcasing empty parking spaces on the street.

Revealing the ins and outs of the feud with her neighbours, Ellie said: 'Basically this has been going on for 18 months now and he has just had enough.

'We thought we won because he [one neighbour] moved his car across the road but she hasn't reversed her [another neighbour's] car yet.'

'The whole point of this is, it's not their road it's not their spot,' Ellie affirmed.

'To go out of your way to all get ready to go in one car to pull one car back is just such far when you see how far it is. It's only five metres across the road.

'We've tried to resolve things. We have messaged them a few times but they just don't like us,' she claimed.

Many were left divided by the parking wars, with many echoing their support for Ellie whilst others stuck up for her neighbours.

One penned: 'My neighbour does this. Every single night she parks so far over that she’s basically touching my car! Honestly, I am sick of it.'

The arguments between the residents began because the neighbours in question reportedly refused to give up 'their spot' on the public road, often parking mere inches away from nearby vehicles

'Some neighbours can literally turn your life into a whole nightmare,' a second wrote.

Another chimed in: 'First come first serve, if they want a spot buy a house with a drive.'

However, others saw her neighbour's point of view, quipping: 'To be fair… if it’s right outside their house it’s their spot out of respect… legally no but respectfully yes.'

Ellie left the following comment, which read: 'For 1 car yes - not both when there are 20 houses in a row.'

'There are never any winners in neighbourhood disputes sadly,' another sorrowfully said.
