Have a quick question as you may tell I run the car as a taxi, everyone comments how nice it is, but its needing some new front tyres. I do a lot of miles being a taxi and on a range of roads country, dual carriageways etc. Any recommendations on best tyres to get?

Also think the exhaust is starting to blow a little is it worth just getting a bog standard exhaust for it or any others that may last longer as i'll run this car till the engine packs in (which i've heard could well be a few years yet if looked after).

thanks in advance

If your going to taxi use Coopers tyres, I think they now own Avon but its the Coopers you want. Ive never changed an exhaust - ever.

Cambelt, aux belt and handbrake shoes. Dont run the cambelt to 90K change about 60K at a guess. If you dont know where the car has been, change all this week.
