Tax station and tyre in one day, that is annoying. Maybe you're just getting all the bad luck over with in one go?

Lets hope so.

It's only 10 miles there and back, so with the cost of Tax station visit and paying to get my tyre swapped it works out at £2.50 a mile  :-\

Hope you find some cheap tyres mate! Look on the bright side, other people go to the tax station every time (yes you read that right!) they get low on fuel!!

Go have a few beers and feel smug that you don't pay £148.9 per litre of fuel!

I put in £15 tonight as don't have any filtered veg at the minute!

It's my Merc C250.

I have 4 good goodyear tyres that came off when the winter tyres went on, I just need to get all swapped over now as the weathers turning.

But I've only got 3 winter tyres now.
