Something missing ?

[Josie172cup]

i got a flat tyre today and as i lifted up the carpet in the boot i notice something missing...

no spare wheel just 2 tins of foam stuff

just wondering is this standard on a 172cup

 

[Saner]

Yes IIRC all part of the weight saving

 

[DrR]

Quality, nice to see someone who knows what they've bought and checks the tyre pressue in their spare.

 

[LegoHead]

s**t dude, must have been in a crash! The boot floor has been welded up by the sounds of it.

 

[Peperami]

Lol, it means when you put heavy shopping in the boot the boot floor bends

fair doo's!

i bet you haven't! did you use the foam ok on the flat?

 

[.GAZ.]

ive got a spare.. that foam is gash!!!

 

[Scaggeh]

Mine sat on my drive for 5 days waitin for a new tyre when mine was fucked. Seriously considering getting a spare, being without it was a hassle.

I always do my research too. Others don't, probably why so many people end up buying lemons tbh.

 

[Leeshez]

Oh no disaster.

 

[Laing1982]

same as my 197, no spare just 2 tins of the good stuff

 

[Weeman]

My golfs the same, tin of foam, and an air compressor that plugs into the 12v

 

[LiquidRich]

the new forms of the foam stuff are really good, we had a puncture in the 197 and used the foam. worked a treat and was really easy to get out.
I would rather have the misses use that stuff than try and change a tyre at the side of a motorway

 

[Timmay]

foam in the mk2 is gash!

 

[Leeshez]

Foam is rubbish when you have a blow out. It does not work well on splits.

 

[Dillsy]

I'm thinking I may have to sort out a spare for mine too, im not so good with the whole 'reading of instructions' malarkey at the best of times, so i'm sure when im standing by the side of the road with a flat tyre i'll get myself in a bit of a mess with a can of tyre foam

 

[steven.m]

I bet you believed them when your dealer told you your spare was bald
