Cool with me, not Reading so doubt it'd be rammed.how about Sainsburys? Jct12
Having worked at a Supermarket not in the town centre for 8 and a half years i think it will be full to bursting
...especially as it is next door to a boots and a Next store
I followed the road on google street view and the carpark is almost full...in the middle of May
ETA: the carpark isn't actually all that big....
ETA2: there's a Dunelm mill...litterally round the corner....with it's own carpark...again not very big, but it's not shared by other stores
perhaps turn left at the round about instead of going straight over to sainsbury's? ETA3: Sorry...looks like the speed bumps heading towards dunelm mill and porche are pretty nasty for those who are lows <_<

Big bumps indeed, but not impossible.
You can get over surprisingly large bumps with the right technique. Drive over straight and you're gonna get beached or wreck the underside of the car.
The only bumps I've found to be impossible are these ones:
Once your front wheels drop over, you're screwed.

Should be doable on the A38
Yeh a38 is the way to go!
I'd be happy sticking with the services... ^_^
I did just spend another few minutes exploring street view and there are a couple of tasty looking abandoned warehouse/industrial units not too far from dunelm
...(assuming now 6 months later they still are empty)...
...could make for awesome photographs...especially if the light is good and someone can get an HDR effect going
one is concrete blocked off but another one has a road in front to nowhere else...an option perhaps?

The thing that puts me off the services is that it will be the busiest place out of all of them :/
Awww that sucks Chris...Ill for christmas?...I know how un-fun that is <_<
Here Karl.... http://i189.photobucket.com/albums/z110/Sai_art/Car/dunelmWH.jpg it's along the road and on the right from the store
I'm thinkin' that grass verge might be a bit high but if we kind of line up and hide it just getting the big blocked up doors in the shot?
..this is the dunelm store http://i189.photobucket.com/albums/z110/Sai_art/Car/Duneml.jpg
...the carpark appears to go on a bit to the left of shot...nice'n'empty
also my local dunelm mill has a cafe inside...this one might too?...although i can't find it on the store website
...and here is the particularly "urban" looking warehouse just acrsoss the road http://i189.photobucket.com/albums/z110/Sai_art/Car/WH2.jpg
...perhaps 2/3 of us at a time could park up in the bit of clear entrance and be shot from the other side on the road?
...thoughts?
ETA: like i said before...if it's still empty that is ^_^
