Another day, another disaster!
Yes - a second rear puncture has befallen the car, not that I could go anywhere anyway in this much snow - but it is an expense that I could have done without at present! My plan had been to manage through this winter then drop a full set of Michelin Cross Climates on the car next autumn, I am not a fan of the stock Bridgestone tyres - I have never got on with the brand anyway - but changing a brand new set seemed extravagant.
But with a second puncture in 5 months they are all going. The fronts are 1/2 worn anyway and doing a terrible job in the snow, the rear Goodyear is actually in really good shape so I may keep those in mind for future, but I can’t put 3 all season tyres on and leave that one as is (the cheaper route would have been 3 Goodyears, but I want better snow performance!)
So tomorrows wee job out in Fort Augustus will either be done in the van or under tyre sealant then in on Monday for a full set of new boots on the offchance that the snow comes back again after this weekends thaw!
