Smarta morgana

The phenomenon of assuming to have spotted an empty parking spot and realizing - when approaching further - that the parking spot is already occupied by a Smart car that could not be seen from a further distance.

"There's a free parking spot over there between the SUVs!"

(approaching)

"Damn, it's already occupied by a Smart. The SUVs are blocking the view"

"That's a clear-cut case of a Smarta morgana"
