For the second time in 3 years I had another damaged and cracked Alloy.
Kwik fit had just fitted 3 new tyres and had not noticed the damage.i say this cause I travelled only a few miles sice tyres changed.Anyway had to go to Merc this morning who said it was dented and new wheel needed at my expense.Now I was on my way for a 400 mile trip,so not on a space saver.So along with new wheel ,I have had to hire a car for 4 days.
Ford Fiesta 1.4 deisel and a good wee car it is too.Miss the cruise & auto though.
Only good news is that the wheel to be replaced was my most corroded & kerbed and would have cost me to refurbish before going back to lease company.
I just think quality of the wheels are rubbish or the pot holes are getting more aggresive
