For sure. My comment was about the 98% who don’t have a Blue Badge, and who shouldn’t be wasting their time trying to park 10 metres from the front door, because a two minute walk won’t kill them.
Who’s doing the alignment?
Do they know what they’re doing, like Micheldever Tyre Services?
Or are they just tyre fitters with very basic alignment kit?
Yes, but for different reasons. I tend to use the smaller car for errands and the nicer to drive car for “trips.”
Car parks? They make me chuckle as everyone fights for the right places close to the entrance, while 20-50 metres away there’s loads of space and no need to park next to anyone...
Have you tried a little Autoglym or "Furniture Clinic" leather cleaner ?
If not, it would be worth a weekend hour to see how much it could be brought up
Just a thought. Royal are excellent, but if your wheel is structurally good, it's worth a try.
