Malpass calls bullsh*t. My street doesn't work. The van decided my street wasn't worth the right turn...
Van? It's an Opel Astra.

Which might explain the shocked look on your avatar. Makes sense when you think about it.

What exactly is wrong with it?

I for one, like your signature. But anyway, the Google car drove past my house whilst I was outside of it, yet for my street I'm not on there, yet my next door neighbour is. Are they going everywhere twice?

Are you following me? I was recently in Ipswich.

Just by being on the internet you should know. Here is what it looks like, in case you've missed it.

EDIT: The car looks different now, it has world city names on it and a small image of pegman on the rear.

No, you are right. They have a fleet of Astras, not just one.

It goes to all the touristy places, the cars aren't allowed.

Google now has a 3D mode in Street View, it requires Red and Blue glasses (I guess my Ch4 specs won't work then..):
