The blunder happened in the car park of Lewisham Hospital on Thursday (20/05/2021) morning at around 10am.
Darren Pittman was looking for a space himself when he noticed the driver failing miserably to park his £65,000 blue Jaguar I-Pace fully electric car and had already hit a black Ford Focus parked on the right.
As the clip begins the car is flush against a Toyota Aygo reversed parked on the left, and the front wheels are over the kerb on gravel.
He first reverses straight back, it is now clear his wheels are over the line and in the already occupied bay.
Driving forward with the wheel turn slightly to the right he again hits the kerb, however instead of straightening his wheels he turns them further to the right and as a result the eight month old car hits the Toyota.
He attempts this manoeuvre a total of four times and hitting the car again before reversing straight back and the clip ends as he gets closer to Mr Pittman's car.
Sharing the clip online he wrote: "Never drive a car that is too big to park."
The video has been viewed 220,000 times attracted 500 comments and been shared over 1,000 times.
Almost immediately the stereotypical comments came such as 'must be a woman driver' or 'an elderly man' and many suggested the driver must be drunk or even possibly ill.
Darren later revealed that it was a man in his 40s driving, he was as sober as a judge and perfectly well.
It is not known however the extend of the damage to the Jaguar or either of the vehicles it hit.
One user commented: "Are they drunk?! Serious note though are they ill or having a stroke or something?"
A second wrote: "Spends £60k on a new Jaguar, yet gets their licence from Kelloggs."
While a third said: "They can afford the car, but not driving lessons?"
Another added: "Even with gadgets, gizmos, sensors and cameras onboard look at this lemon!"
Bay parking has formed part of the driving test since 2017, and although reverse bay parking is more practical and safer, you could be asked to to do either by your examiner but will only be asked to reverse into a bay in the driving centre car park and to drive into a bay elsewhere.
