Melbourne - A Chinese expert steerer has set a new record of parallel parking by squeezing his car into a gap just 15cm longer than the vehicle.

He broke the Guinness world record set just last month by Patrik Folco, whose car was just 22cm shorter than the space he tucked it into, Courier Mail reported.

Han skilfully drifted his car to victory early in the day to break Folcoâ€™s record with a 21cm difference, then had the organisers keep whittling the gap down until he got to 15cm.

Hansâ€™ Guinness World Record-winning performance was part of the Beijing launch of a new Mini special edition called The Chinese Job.
