Personalised ‘Caqnu’ licence plate attracts wrong kind of attention

Anti-social, if not illegal, parking is a bad idea when people know who you are...

This Mercedes station wagon is enough to get passers-by looking.

But not because it’s a sought after member of the German car fleet, but because of that personalised licence registration plate.

It's no surprise that the ‘Caqnu’ licence plate makes an obvious reference to a member of the Polidano Brothers construction group. But the company has denied that the vehicle is owned by any of the Polidanos, despite the uniqueness of the nickname.

With this display of anti-social parking, with the car’s wheels digging into the flower bed in the public garden by the Msida yacht marina, an angry passer-by was quick to snap photos of the offending vehicle.
