Yes, I did think they were pricey, but if Phil Young is pushed for time, I thought he might be interested. I joined the forum, as part of the search for some wheels, for some Barum winter tyres that I got off Fleabay. I was inspired by tales of Swiss haus fraus, in Polos on winter tyres, running rings around Chelsea Tractors on summer tyres, being taken on skiing holidays. Last winter I enjoyed driving past BMW and Mercs, spinning their rear wheels, in a car that cost less than a couple of their tyres. "Should have bought a Maestro mate!" And that was on crappy old (too exciting) summer tyres.
I have lurked for a while... BTW thanks to ETV and others, for all the help over the last few years from the archives.
Don't you get sick of saying, "Have you ever driven one, or even been in one?", to the Top Gear generation. I know I do. A yoof 106er didn't like it when I pointed out that my car was faster, cheaper, more spacious with much better MPG!
