Dizzy Posted February 25, 2009 Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 When I had a car the tyres used to rotate automatically every time I went out. Damn clever these Japanese chappies!! LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bazj Posted February 25, 2009 Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 Well the last set of tyres I bought for my car cost over ?600.00.... if Europe think I am spending that twice they have another think coming! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bazj Posted February 25, 2009 Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 Dead Right..... Mind you, if you go onto EBays German site there are often sets of winter tyres for sale and they bare usually fitted to the crappiest wheels imaginable!

observer Posted February 25, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 25, 2009 IF a set of tyres costs that much, wonder what the fine will be IF you got caught?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bazj Posted February 26, 2009 Report Share Posted February 26, 2009 Well probably for me; working, generally law abiding, car taxed, MOT'd, insured and looked after and well maintained I would get a fine in excess of ?1,000 If I was a saxo driving, baseball cap wearing doley chav with no tax, no MOT and no insurance; probably a ?60.00 fine payable at ?2.00 a week Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Father Jack Hackett Posted March 2, 2009 Report Share Posted March 2, 2009 How are we expected to know when our winter time ends or our summer time begins and vice versa ... or would suitable tyre types and changes be expected on a daily basis A man with a white coat, squeaky shoes and toting a clipboard will tell you. and then.......when the man in the white coat is axed due to government cutbacks. A man in a shiny peaked cap, 18 hole Docs and a machine pistol will gently remind you and then......when the man in the shiny cap is getting to big for his docs...... A camera with a dirty great telephoto lens will take a snap of your tyres, your number plate and your biometric characteristics before making a BACS withdrawal from your bank account.
