Sounds like a good deal....Just make doubly sure they have XL on the tyre before you let them fit them. 39psi remember

Making them £128.49 each fitted

Plus you get a free Amazon Dot (gen 2) worth £89.99

So if you sold the Amazon Dot say for £80 then they would cost £108.49 each fitted!!
If you have them fitted on a Saturday, you can get an additional 10% discount.

Mine are getting fitted this Saturday

The Continental AllSeasonContact wins the AutoExpress 2018 test over Michelin, Goodyear and Nokian, BUT it is not available in SUV size/profiles. Perhaps it will be in the future when they realise there is a market to be supported.

Have got Pirelli Scorpion Verde All Season on all four corners of my XC70. They're not a patch on the Vredestain Quatracs that my dad has on his XC70 or the Cooper Weathermaster's on my XC90....

I've still got no complaints over the Pirelli scorpion verde a/s - have been great in mud/snow/wet grass and more importantly...the road!!

How did you get on with the fitting/price and did you have to wait long for ATS to order them in?

Are you pleased with the CrossClimates?

Just had 4 Cross Climate fitted. Quieter than the OEM Continentals BUT now finding the car seems to want to track the camber much more than it used to. Alignment should be good as it's not that long since done and the difference was obvious after the tyres went on.

Anyone else experienced this?

Now that's a concern! They are my favoured replacement when the Wranglers need replacing.

The Continentals were down to 2/3 mm, so were getting noisy. Anything would have been better! So far, so good though.

I booked the ATS slot for 2 weeks after I paid for them, just so I could get the additional 10% off for Saturday fitting. They were fitted in 35 minutes.
