Found one of my rear tyres had a slow puncture, so took the car off to get it repaired after inflating with the car's compressor (very handy bit of kit!).

The tyre place removed the wheel and found the culprit - a screw that's gouged a huge groove in the tyre somehow, rendering the tyre as scrap! It's not the end of the world as the tyres only had about 3mm tread remaining, but an expensive fix for a puncture. I've just ordered a new pair of tyres from Camskill which will arrive tomorrow. I've gone for the Vredesteins again as that was what was on there before. I've never experienced them previously and was quite impressed with them. A bit of Internet research gives them excellent reviews also. £332 for the pair delivered, great value I reckon.
