Actually, despite owning the car for four years I'm still not able to correctly gauge where the corners are unless I can actually see them (so for example the wing mirrors were both adjusted to let me watch the back of the car during the linked manouevre). I have any number of scrapes on the front bumper of the car from tapping it off the wall in the same car park (although I have never connected with any other car in the car park, except to tip someone's wing mirror with my own while edging past). I think, basically, in addition to having crap depth perception, I have recalcitrant muscle memory as far as these things go - I find similar problems with e.g. playing pool or bowling; I don't improve over the course of a few games, generally speaking.
