    Not so.. I had 'advice' from a Vauxhall dealer in Redditch that my front tyres were on legal limit (only went in for new headlight!). Took the car home to Newcastle and straight to a Kwik-Fit garage where the mechanics tested the tyres and found them to be way above, not even close to legal limit. In fact they brought out 3 mechanics and the manager all with their little tester things. Sent me on my way without a penny spent!
