Recommendation - Tyre Pressure Gauge/Inflator

Would anyone have any recommendations please? I have carried out some research but cannot seem to find any sites with useful product recommendations and costs vary considerably. I wonder if mid range digital options offer better value for money and are just as accurate/reliable.

I use the circular ones made by Michelin and they are fine, completely sutomatic in operation.

Don't you have one in the boot of your car, free from Land Rover along with the tyre foam?

I have this little box in the polystyrene section of the well under the floorboards




I must admit though I use a Halfords portable compressor and a digital pressure gauge I was given for Christmas about 20 years ago.
Halfords have this at £35 that has automatic cut-off. I have found one problem with the Evoque and in-car power points, only the boot one remains live with the ignition off, the front one shuts off after 10 minutes so you have to be quick with the front tyres as the cable on these compressors usually don't stretch the distance from the boot to the front wheels without a bit of threading the cable between the seats and out of a front window to do both the front tyres


OOOPS, just noticed you have a spare wheel so no free pump LDT!

Yep I had one in my first Evoque along with the foam stuff!

Thanks for the photos Tim. Why oh why was this not included with the spare wheel!

Cheers Mark, I will source one of those.

If you have the spare wheel at least you get a Jack, unlike us with the compressor and gauge!

You don't even get a wheel brace to be able to check the tightness of the wheel nuts if you don't have the spare tyre!

My dealer threw me a jack and wheel brace in, but they are surprisingly cheap anyway (by car spares standards!); you can get the set from Duckworths for £38.50 + VAT.

Thanks for that Donny, I will order a set up from Dan on Tuesday.

There you go, you can use some of those 'posting points' now!

(It's £38, not £38.50, as well - my mistake - so there's another ten bob saved!)
