I figured if I save them up the piss-taking probably won't be as bad as if I posted separately
So, no. 1 - I have been driving around for the last few weeks with a decent sized nail sticking out of my rear tyre. To add insult to injury, it is actually one of my own nails...
Anyway, I have lost count of the number of tyre repair places I have now been to who all say they won't touch the wheels because they have to go on the machine upside down. Therefore the grippers would score the visible side of the rim and one would not be a happy camper - which I accept. However, I presume someone somewhere must be able to deal with these wheels apart from BMW (who I suspect do not do tyre repairs either.... ). Any ideas? Preferably in the Newcastle or Manchester areas? Surely it's not just me who's ever had this problem?
No. 2 is even more stupid... The only MC I experienced before buying mine was mint, however the drivers seat didn't recline. Which I found odd... I then bought my car, and the drivers seat doesn't recline... I convinced myself I had read somewhere that this is 'feature' of the car (albeit a crap one...) but surely not???!!! So, do people's drivers' seats recline, or again - is it just me???!!
