The 28 Day's Later ones were a tad smarter and quicker though - gotta be ready to wake up one morning and find the neighbours wandering about in a slightly more disturbing fashion than they already do and grab the car keys and go! Hmmm, can see how calling out LR Assist in such a situation could be a little risky though...

My wife did not know that it was flat and she did not feel it when driving. I looked at the tyre and the outside edges of the tyre had been worn away (all be it a little bit just to take the writing off) also as I pressed the tyre I could hear the air exiting the tyre. I found the slit in the tyre and tried to pump it up at home (I have a compressor) but the slit was too big to get any air in to the tyre. We do not have the space saver So the car is stuck at home which is lucky I guess. We have the 20" alloys and after getting on the phone we cant get a tyre as nobody carries them as they are made of GOLD thats what you would think when you get the price. We were quoted £408.00 fitted from Kwik Fit or should I say Kiwk Ripoff this was with the so called 25% off. My point is now if the tyre has a slit not a slow puncture then you are totally screwed as the goo fix will not sort that out so you are stuck in your car no spare and no way of moving your car unless you get help from Land Rover Assist. I am waiting now for a tyre to be delivered as I found a Michelin for £198.00 which is a super price . Without the space saver you are in trouble so I so wish that I had ordered one now but did not .The Space saver tyre is a must and Land Rover should have put then in from new and not fitted tyres to the 20" alloys made from GOLD. Guess what I will be buying.
