Take ticket 47 and don't look at it again. Park on the yellow line like everyone else, engine off and the window down, and rehearse the line: "it only does that noise when it's cold".
The inspector is called Julen and he has spent eight hours telling people their headlights are crooked. Don't tell him your life: tell him about the noise.
When he hands back the sticker, smile, pull out slowly, and at the first roundabout turn up the volume so you can't hear the noise.
