One day before selling the Griff to DM and....left rear goes pop. Nail sticking out laughing at me. Grrr..!!

Black circle tyres, one Toyo Proxy 245/45/ZR16, fitted, balanced, etc, etc £127. Job done at my local F1 place round the corner Tuesday morning.

Still, it was £120 could have done without! In the space of 3 days my car spending has been £120 rear screen repaired and sewn back in, £320 new car insurance of the Fiesta and now £127 on a new tyre. Wouldnt mind but the bloody tyre was brand new in November when I bought Gruff and Ive only done about 3000 miles since then!

TVR better have my damn Sagaris ready before August!

I havent even got the insurance sorted yet :gulp: !

If your insurance company want a tracker fitted....it has to be a Cat 5.
Don't let them persuade you to put any tracker in....as a lot of insurance companies will only except a Cat 5 for a Sagaris and you don't want to be upgrading in a year or so.

Dealing with Sunninghill and advised a 24 hour monitor tracker would be acceptable. Please let me know what a Cat 5 tracker is.....they're new to me
