We took our normal car across and found the roads there to be in a shocking state, when we got back to the mainland my OH checked the tyres before the journey home and they were in a terrible state with chunks taken out of them, one was damaged quite significantly so before we headed we had to have 2 new tyres put on the car.

I've lived here all my life and never had any of my tyres end up like that due to the condition of the roads. (the roads are shocking though, i'll give you that. Pothole Island).

Our car has low profile tyres which probably didn't help but one was in a real bad state and they weren't like it when we left home or even Southampton. It won't put us off going over again, we'll just make sure we have the 4x4 with us instead.
