Bill Prawn Posted December 6, 2004 Share Posted December 6, 2004 As it says, one cat removed passed with no work needed:) Just got to get a tyre which I knew as I want four but there is a UK shortage of Goodyears apparently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RICHARDA Posted December 6, 2004 Share Posted December 6, 2004 I was listening to the wireless this evening and the news bulletin reported a world shortage on the steel (for the cords) and rubber used in tyre manufacture because of the pace of the rapidly expanding Chinese markets. Seems like they are outstriping supply on these materials. They reported that tyre manufacturers may be increasing the cost of tyres by up to 20% in the new year!
