I've had 2 flats this year already. 2008 had a proper blowout that no 'goo' in the world could fix! In Ireland, Peugeot are supplying all the new 508's with a full size spare stating that 'Irish roads are not ready for sealant' etc. The car in question (508) still has a competitive CO2 output of 114g/km using a 1.6 D and automated manual box. This 'wheel' issue alone has brought my father back to the Peugeot dealership for the first time in 30 years and now caused him to by-pass the Volvo one. As for me, if Volvo don't put in a wheel, I won't be buying a Volvo. Ever.
It's like Volvo putting in a 10 litre fuel tank to save weight saying that 'ah most people don't travel more than 50 miles at a time!' What if?!?!? Well what's next on the list? The back seat? Most cars only have 1 occupant.. etc.
Woo progress.
