Title: Punctures!
Post by: Omega_Dan on 14 December 2011, 00:00:52
Got back this afternoon to find my n/s/r Tyre a little flat. A hour later it was past half way down. Whipped the tyre off to find a nail inside the tread which hopefully i will be able to get repaired as the tyre is like new. Its the 2nd puncture ive had this year but i have never had one before in nearly 10 years of driving?

Guess its just my time ::)

So until i find the time to get it repaired the mig is now looking very sorry for itself. Partly down to the spare being fitted but partly due to it being filthy :-X

It is ::) It usually gets gone every weekend but havent done it since the south wales meet and the roads have been filthy. Puncture repair will only cost a tenner or so, just a tenner i could have done with saving.
