    Not almost 200 miles to new Ross.

    Not too bad tyre was sitting at 10 psi when I checked this morning sickened 50 quid down on call out charge and 2 hourslate leaving.

    WWouldn't mind I have been off the last 2 days if it wasn't such a slow puncture.

    Always check my tyres every week or so as its really hard to tell with low profiles

    Most of them go for nearly double that here.
    The UK have them much cheaper though.

    Wouldn't know about the tax but €31K?!
    Jesus, it'd probably still work out cheaper than buying in a garage mind.

    I see a black GT-R near work most days too, I love it.

    If I were spending that kind of money I wouldnt want an audi, I would want something more prestige like the ferrari/mclaren, or an aston perhaps.

    The mclaren looks like a beast imo

    Yea the Mclaren was a beauty although I just dont get the hype over the Ferrari.

    My car is now covered in tree sap and bird poop :(

    This reeks of Dougal's "I'm no good at judging the zise of crowds Ted, but I'd say there's about 17 million of them out there" :P
