Buying 4 new tyres - but which ones ?
I've always been a bit anal about tyres and if I go ahead and buy a second hand motor then I'm likely to chuck the tyres away if they are even anything like a bit old or worn. My guess is that I'll be getting a motor with 20-30k on the clock and on the first set of tyres which are the first set fitted to the 3+ year old…

Legal cover as part of motor insurance - worth it or just a con ?
I reckon it is a con. They charge you around £25 and in my experience (though only once) they were as much good as a chocolate fireguard and simply did not want to step in.
