Oh Christ wots the point in having a 182..?.



Got a nice 182 sitting outside the front door...and YET again, i cannot drive it...

YET ANOTHER FLAT BLOODY TYRE...

Thanks renault...£100 odd quid off the street for your stupid tyres...Oh but wait...

ther is a 3 day wait till they source the tyres etc...(specialist tyres my ARSE)

BUT WAIT...thats not why i cant drive it this time...NO the stupid locking wheelnut wont come off (think ive wrecked it)..

SO renault, due to your Pishy soft steel keys my wheel is stuck on (FLAT) while i get someone out to DESTROY YOUR NUTS...

And i will tell you this potential theives..!!
when it does get fixed my car will no longer have locking wheel nuts cos they are CRAP and cause a lot of hassel..

So steal my wheels all you bloody want as they are scratched, and i may aswell get value for money out of the MILLIONS of pounds im paying insurance..AND MAKE A CLAIM...





PLUS its a bank holiday and the whole of the United Kingdom has decided to shut down and bugger off op Loch Lomond...to sit in the rain..


I Hate you RENAULT and i hate your stupid cars...and the government (fuel prices)

guessing your 20 so insurance must be ^high^!


Its not bad...not as much as wot i was paying back in the days when I was 18...

3yrs no claims and all that help a lot now...

BUT why design a car that uses tyres that you cant get a hold of..?

and whats the deal with locking wheel nuts...

sorry but why the feck are you buying tyres form renault? surely they're severley overcharging you for doing so?
 
When I had two new front tyres, I kept the old ones (very little meat left on them) just in case something like this happens. *Touches wood*

I have a spare alloy for mine, should really sort out a spare tyre for it too.

Know what you mean about locking wheel nuts though.

mytyres are just about the cheapest online an their service is good.

Their service is non existant!

Black Circles will actually help you. I use mytyres and their prices are often good but if you want reliability then don't use them.

Don't wait until you need one before you buy. Get a spare cheap online then keep it (in the boot if you have room) or at home.

my contisports i got from a local one-off garage cheap wouldnt goto renault for nething now the warrenty has run out
 
Had this problem too, Renault wanted £100 for a tyre, I was desperate and it was December 23rd so I had to do it. However, Pro-Tyre (local to me, not sure if its national) always have the Cup Conti Contacts in stock for £55 so I' prepared now!

Pro-Tyre are South West based as far as I know, the local Gloucester branch to me are very good.
