Went down the scrapyard today, 2x bridgestone tyrs, with about 37 miles off the tread from an M1 write off,  fitted and ballanced  
£30 the pair 8-)

K+N standard fit air filter, shinney and new after a good clean, a fiver!

YEYEYEYEYYE

Oh and 2 pockets full of bits and bob2 I may need! 8-)

Which scrappy is that?

Bleak Hall, in Milton Keynes matey

sounds like you had a right result there mate!
just a reminder that the v6 engines produce soo much heat that a K&N filter will sound the nuts BUT you will lose between 3-6 BHP. as the engine will be sucking in hot air(hot air is less dense than cold air-hence a lower combustion rate)
keep visiting that scrappy!!

Ta, never knew there was a scrappy down there.  Is it one were you walk around the cars yourself?  Any Omegas there?

I hate to dampen your spirits too much, but secondhand tyres are like a time bomb. You do not know what they have been through. if the car has been a write off it could have been a serious smash in which case the tyres will have excess stress on the sidewalls. Potentially lethal, which is why the tyres are illegal in monst of europe, except UK (who import all the european ones too). Ok if you are just doping 60mph tops, but i suspect with bridgestone, you may be tempted to do a little more. 69.8 perhaps?

Be careful with used tyres!
