Have a guess how much Datsun wanted to help fix this little issue I was confronted with this morning...

Runflats.

 

[Jez]

~£300, the approx cost of a new tyre

 

[Ev0]

Aye, a new tyre at dealer prices I bet Or going ot the other extreme, they fixed it for free?

 

[aayzof]

£1,000?

 

[peterattheboro]

£299?

 

[mjt]

£160 for some duct tape

 

[Housey]

Did you ask them to add a french dresser to your screw or to fix the tyre, we need to know to be accurate as one is going to be massively expensive and one will involve woodwork.

Datsun

?

 

[esK`]

Nissan

 

[L0rdMike]

They fixed it under warrenty and gave you back £50 for providing you with shoddy tyres that pick up screws?

 

[Fr0dders]

?

you show your age

Datsun is the company name that nissan used to use until it was changed in 80s from datsun to nissan.

 

[rare]

Can it not be repaired?

 

[Housey]

Said "Neeee son"

I presume because the tyre is filled with Nitrogen it's going to be a tad* more expensive!





* tad is an huuuuuuge amount

 

[Howard]

I know exactly who Datsun are/were, I just wonder why people call modern Nissans Datsuns, is it trendy?

 

[ZG002]

Either its trendy.. or they wanted LOTS of monies and hes calling them datsun out of spite lol

My local tyre place sell nitrogen in normal tyres. They charge £3 a corner on top of the normal tyre price, but did mine for free because I was buying 4 and was sceptical.

Apart from the green valves, its made sod all difference as I expected - but at least I can say my Mondeo has something in common with an F1 car

 

[Booner!]

£350.

They want £150 off me to grease my dry rear axle (oo eerr), which they caused!

Didn't know average tyre places did this, not that I'll ever bother!

if Vauxhall suddenly rebrand to Shanghai Automotive when they find new owners (or whatever)

do you call them by their new name ? or keep calling them vauxhall ?

my money is on the latter.
