You've no chance mate .
There will be a disclaimer posted somewhere stating that using the car park , leaving valuables in the car etc is entirely at the owners risk .
You really think a company such as Tescos would leave themselves wide open to claims ?
Me thinks not !

You'd have to give ktec a bell for the ones for a 172/182 .
MrBillyUK !
How have i cancelled myself out ???
The fronts do most of the braking , as we both agree ! If you have little tread on the back especially in wet conditions the tyres won't grip the road and will want to overtake the front as the front tyres bite into the road .
I know , i've experienced...
They're like rockin horse sh*t .
I phoned a couple of Renault garages , they wouldn't sell the cable on its own , only as a package with the multi changer .
£300 for the lot :eek:
MrBillyUK !
I paid £12,227 delivery mileage , on the road a couple of weeks ago
Full fat 182 with both cup packs . Gettin harder find em now . Had to phone a few places around the UK .
MrBillyUK !
Makes sense if you want to wear your tyres down at the same rate and replace all 4 at once .
I guess safety isn't high on your list of priorities then ? :eek:
MrBillyUK !
Always have the best tread on the back , if you have to slam on ( especially in the wet , or on a bend ) , the front will stop the back won't , it will want to overtake the front end .
Tyres play a major part in the braking of a car and the fronts do most of the braking .
MrBillyUK !
Thats pretty f*ckin quick mate considerin' you say it is almost standard .Is that your top speed , are you hitting the rev limiter at 250kmh ??
What do you call almost standard ??
MrBillyUK !
Expensive way of doin' it replacing em all at the same time .
New on back , back ones to the front and you should get at least another 6 months out of the front ones .
You know it makes sense :)
MrBillyUK !
From what i've heard its a bit of a b*stard to get out , dash off job i think .
Thats why you see the changers for sale and not the leads !
MrBillyUK !
Thats probably the correct way in a bodyshop , cleaner environment , proper equipment etc ....
He's working from home and spraying from a can .As i'm sure your aware of , cans don't give the smooth , even finish of a pro bodyshop , they tend to spit paint out in big globules as your spraying ...
Sorry mate can't be done if you want it in standard audio format .
Only way is mp3 .
You'll have to split the file into two if you want it in audio format .
MrBillyUK !
Its not the take off speed mate , its when you need to slam on you should be more bothered about .
Lets just say i know from experience , an ass twitchin moment ;)
Don't forget , about 75% of braking is done by the front brakes / tyres . If you have bald or low thread tyres on the back...
^^^^^^^^
Never heard of that one before , the tyre walls get stiffer ??
Did somebody tell you this ? Or is it something that you made up ,lol ;)
MrBillyUK !
When you get new tyres always put em on the back , for 2 reasons .
1st it prolongs the life of your tyres .
2nd if you have less thread on your back tyres and you have to break hard , emergency stop etc .... the fronts will grip and stop and the back of the car won't stop and will want to...
I totally agree with the above .
I had a bang in my old 172 , all cosmetic , new bumper , wing , respray , labour costs etc ....
Cost to the insurance company was £2500 . Parts are very expensive even for a small accident .Thats why the cost soon mounts up and they say that it is not...
