!!!!!! are u guys talking about?
I told the tyres is one of the things you should look at, if it's some scrappy car, from bogus seller with other obvious faults than 99% of the time tyres also will be crap.
You dont walk away from perfectly good car if the only thing what is wrong is tyres.
So your point is to look at a bad car, find faults with it, then look at the tyres and say "They are cheap, no deal"? I don't understand.0 -

Im just leaving this pathetic forum Forever, You UK guys are bunch of Retards, go and buy that new shiny car on lease and be glad that you are paying only 300quid a month like most of you do.
At least no worries than when your SUPER OLD 3year Old banger you just stopped paying lease on can brake down on you and you won't know what to do, Ohh.... Flat tyre.. Gotta Call AA.
Ohhh Oil change is due better go to service and pay some chap 200quid to change your oil for you :rotfl:
But what if some light bulb goes out? Ouch... Gotta call the Damn bas.tard who sold me the car and ask him to take it back because its not roadworthy. :T

Well, that escalated quickly :cool:0 -
I'd missed the rush, and forgot new cars rarely have a full-size spare. No I wouldn't replace the new tyre to match the rest, unless I was turning it into a spare.
Its worse than that, NO spare!!, I haven't had a puncture in years and years in my old bangers, and being old they all had a full size spare, get a new car without a spare 500 miles later get a puncture.0 -
Get the seller to drop the car off at a local garage for a full inspection.
Check bumper alignment.
