Anyway, all sorted with a new tyre ... but now I think I ought to replace the bottle of sealant ready for next time.

First look on the web was a shock - £47 !! I eventually found one at £22.

Has anyone else purchased a replacement and found it cheaper?

And, under the assumption that the compressor tube is full of gunge, does that need replacing too?

All advice welcome (except "you should have bought a car with a spare wheel").

Noted your comment about buying a car with a spare wheel,but do you not have room for at least a 'space saver'? You have already proved you cannot repair a damaged tyre with 'gunge'
