    Michelin Primacy 5

    …all over again. I won’t mention the new set of BFG Advantage Controls and 20” to 19” rim swap for the Evoque. A dozen tyres in a month is enough to make anyone’s wallet cry!

    I'm just going outside for a while.

    Sheeesh… It’s Dymo not Dynamo It’s INS8060 (Introkit SC/MP) not just 8060 And it’s “I am just going outside and may be some time." Captain Oates was a hero, he deserves not to be misquoted.
