David Horgan 564 Posted August 12, 2019 An Auctioneer called Sue charges a lot more the 20p to blow anything Iv'e been told , But she certainly isn't deflated . Could be the person to contact , then your tyre would get blown and your deflation wouldn't be a problem any longer . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CRW 73 Posted August 12, 2019 Ask them to send you some air by Parcelforce, then if it doesn't turn up, or goes to the wrong address, you can jip about that too! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was in the hall for only the second time recently ( previously a civil servant, now retired) and due to the horrible exhaust gasses I sneezed, the pesky auctioneer took that as a bid and I ended up buying Mitsubishi Charisma when I should have been buying a Nissan Juke. Any advice welcome although don't expect any gratitude. Mr R Sole Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I’ve just started as a car dealer aswell and I was wondering if when I sit down I’m meant to cross my legs because otherwise my vagina might show and the other dealers might make fun of me? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Frankieola 22 Posted August 12, 2019 Can you see if another car at the auction has some air in one of its tyres that you could 'borrow'?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I had a nail one tread to the left of centre (huge tyres) and (desperate), I took it to Formula 1 Tyres (multinational), who said that they cannot guarantee a repair because it is too close to the edge. Me, shut up mate, we're in the same game - here's £20, fix it and lose the invoice. Tyre was on +7mm. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
