If it wasn't for your programme last night I would never have realised that going to Kwik Fit or other national tyre centres might not be the cheapest place to get tyres!

most people know they're bodgers anyway dont they? And they always quote you the cheapest price on the phone when you get there its, O we havent got those in stock and try and sell you a more expensive tyre.

was it just me, or was everyone else thinking hey what about some cars that most people can afford? starts off with an 80K s-class, then moves onto a 280k maybach and then onto a 160K bentley turbo R, not exactly everyday cars for most people? I know they need to show *all* makes and models but I felt it needs to be balanced with more realistic stuff!
O and then it ends with them next week looking at an AMG merc cabrio, hmmm that aint gonna be cheap is it?

BTW GaryK, you need to think in the long term wrt to the S-Class, if it follows the lead set by it's predecessors, in 8-10 years time the 600's & 500's are gonna be awesome £10-12K smokers
. Only to be used in desperation !

The program is Sh!te... where did they get the fat bloke and the useless little gimp.. Loads of stuff on cars I can't afford and wouldn't want plus wasting 5 minutes showing a diy bond car.. Not relevant and not interesting.. Similar to my view of Clarkson...
