Any experience of products like GrassPark?

[nmh]

We’ve a Victorian semi in SE London and are clearing the ‘front garden’ for a car parking space. 

Southwark will drop the kerb if we meet the various requirements (permeability etc). 

We are, believe it or not, keen gardeners and would like to keep as much ‘greenery’ in the driveway as possible.

Wondered if anyone had any experience of something like: https://www.pavingdirect.com/grasspark-permeable-paving-grid 

Have read on here that the plastic grid systems can chip and wear easily - any truth in this?

Any thoughts, experience, advice much appreciated.
