An old Peugeot, seen in the morning...
As I recall, the car parked in the cottage's driveway was identified as being related to the car that broke down in front of the cottage that night.
Apparently, there was a group of friends in two cars, and after one of the cars broke down, the 2nd car pulled off of the road onto the cottage's driveway to await the tow truck.

Hiya
Ken Dine,
You are talking about a car seen at night.
here some more detailed info about this, for it appears that more than 1 car was seen that night near or in the driveway:
19:30 Guede claims he left home shortly after TG3 regional started and headed to the cottage and noticed a car parked outside the gates when he arrived.
19:51 First sighting of Rudy Guede on CCTV and a parked car outside the cottage gates. Guede seen walking through the car park towards the cottage gates. CCTV time stamp is 19:41.
20.01 Hekuran Kokomani’s cell phone pings off a tower servicing the cottage.
<snip>
22.30 Time approximate: A car breaks down at the exit of the parking garage across from the cottage. Pasqualino Coletta (the driver) testified that he called for assistance and nothing out of the ordinary happened while waiting. He heard no screams or saw anyone at the cottage. Note – He was part of a group of people traveling in two cars and had just finished dinner when the car broke down. None of the group noticed or heard anything. The second car in the group parked outside the cottage gates waiting for the repair man.
23.00 Mechanic arrives for broken down car. Gianfranco Lombardo was called between 22.30-22.40. He left his house in Bastia and arrived within 15 to 20 minutes. In a previous verbale he had said he arrived at about 11pm. It took him 10 to 15 minutes to load up the car and document it. He finished the job at about 23:15. He noted the gate of via della Pergola was open, and there was a car parked there, probably of a dark color. Parked car belonged to a friend of Pasqualino Coletta. Lombardo didn’t see any lights on in the house. He left at the latest at 23:20 and didn’t notice anybody pass by on the road or hear any screams etc.[35] The CCTV shows Lombardo arriving at 11.14pm and the tow truck remains stationary to 11.24pm (time adjusted forward 10mins)

Did you know that supposedly Hekuran Kokomani
had a conversation with the tow truck driver?
Koko apparently testified to this in The Massei Court on March 28, 2008.

"A tow truck comes forward, inside there's a man, a woman and a boy. They ask Hekuran directions for Cesena. He answers What time is it?. He doesn't understand their replay. Probably it was This one is crazy, let's go. How rude, so we will never know exactly what time it was."
My opinion only,
but that is a weird statement to make in court.
Why did Koko state he talked with the tow truck driver?
Was he there that night?
I'd luv to read an English translation of any depositions or courtroom testimony from Hekuran Kokomani.

The Dark Car.
But what I was really talking about was a dark car,
seen on the morning after the murder,
in the driveway,
shortly before the cops arrived...
What am I talking about?

The one who saw the Peugeot in the garden is reliable: he's sure that it was in the morning of November 2 because he remembers that right after the police arrived.
<snip>
Rudy asked the Albanian his car, predicting that he had to transport the body together with the others. And indeed he had an old dark car already in the evening of 31st, when the mechanic saw it --for sure-- outside the gate. That old car was the same old Peugeot that was in the garden in the morning of the 2nd, ready to take the body away. But the body was too complicated to be taken so they where happy with just the cell phones. They drove away and they toss them, directly from the car, in Lana's garden.
Here's another tidbit of info:
And from another old Perugia Shock posting, dated Dec. 2, 2008:
A fifth new witness recalled that later in the same morning there was an old Peugeot in the garden. So they went to try take the body with that car that Rudy had borrowed from someone. But maybe the car arrived too late, and carrying the body in the daylight became too risky. So they just took Meredith cellphones, they drove away and they tossed them from the car (just outside Rudy and Raffaele's house...).

With said,
The Grinder has sorta explored some issues that I have too with this case we discuss.
meaning that he too has wondered if Rudy had a friend there that night,
namely Hekuran Kokomani.
So let me examine this a bit, ok, just for fun,
going off my memory, the details are around here in the old archives
of all that we've discussed over the years.
Rudy and Koko are ridin' a crime wave,
it was they were who busted into the lawyers office.
Someone disabled the burglar alarm, even though it wasn't activated, if I recall correctly.
Who, Rudy or someone more experienced?
So Rudy and his bro are gonna hit up and rip off the Boyz + Girlz flat,
to get whatever they can.
They park the old car of Koko's in the driveway, Koko's the look-out, Rudy, as simply as tossin' a free throw into the basket, breaks the glass to Filomena's bedroom and then quickly climbs up + in. While Rudy is inside, Meredith comes home. Koko sees her, watches her and follows. After dropping off her borrowed book in her bedroom, she heads downstairs to feed + check on the cat, this is when Koko, following her, attacks her. Getting her submissive, he takes her back upstairs and she possibly screams out for help, the folks in the CCTV video hear this commotion and look towards the cottage. She is forced inside. Rudy is on the toilet,

Edited for breach of rule 10
.
Koko tries to have some fun, err oral with Meredith. She fights back, is subdued,
she submits, but then does something she that hurt Koko, so he stabs her in anger, again+again.
Rudy comes out and finds this scene, tries to help as Koko flees, who leaves not much DNA nor traces of himself. Or did he? 2 un-attributed fingerprints were found, IIRC, on the inside of Meredith's bedroom door knob. Guede tries to help save Meredith, but then, freaked out, bails. Maybe they met up later that night at the clubs, who knows? Did Guede pull an all nighter after bailing the night clubs or did he get a good night sleep, while seein' red? Was it Koko's old car that someone saw in the driveway the following morning before the cops showed up?
, or whatever they might have imagined.
When the truth doesn't work......tell a lie. I've read what Raffaele said an HE NEVER EVER, EVER, EVER, EVER said any of the nonsense that Vixen is claiming now. But hey, why let the truth get in the way of making an argument? About the only thing Raffaele has ever said is that he couldn't say what Amanda was doing WHILE HE WAS SLEEPING!
