I was being told the other day by a cal salesman more new cars are just coming with a can of tire weld rather than a spare wheel  :shocked:

It's not nice for a tyre fitter when they have to change your rubber.. I've had to use it before, it did it's job OK.

My daily is one of these cars. Come's with a 12v Leccy pump version.

Have you upgraded the exhaust system? Sports cat/cat back/turbo back? What are your options?

Already have a full turbo back 100 cell cat Milltek system - quite loud on full throttle as it only has a small rear box!
