£25 hngh!

I think £25 is pretty reasonable for a mobile fitting/repair some places arent that much cheaper taking your car in

me too

my nearest tyre place takes 10 minutes to get there, ten minutes sitting in waiting room to be seen, 10 minutes for repair and refitting , 15 minutes home

so the extra tenner to have it done outside my work/home/anywhere in 15 mins sounds damn reasonable

Personally I think anyone knowingly driving around regularly with a puncture, slow or not, is mental and irresponsible. Extremely dangerous!

I have a slow puncture. I'm going to die, oh noes!

Yeah you can take the **** alright.

You'll be laughing on the other side of your smug face one day when it blows out at whatever speed you might be doing and takes out some innocent pedestrian or other road user. Grow up.

Well that escalated quickly.

( For the record, I lose around 2-3 PSI a week )

For a grand total of £20 and 15mins of your time - why wouldn't you get it repaired??

Laziness.

That makes sense. I can see how pumping it up every week is easier than booking a 15 minute slot at a garage.

Actually my real root concern is not being able to find a proper wheel balancer in Sheffield yet.
