Got a flat tyre last night, first time ever. Got it all sorted and the spare on. Thankfully enough, it didnt take too long and was fine.
But then I got the genius idea: Next time I'll have a FULL SIZE spare! No 50mph limit! Great!
But I've been told a full size won't fit in the boot spare wheel compartment.. Anyone here who owns a Panda able to confirm or deny this?
I have the standard Dynamic steel wheels with original wheel trims - 13".
Will another identical steel wheel with the same tyre fitted fit in here? I'd much rather lose 2mpg or so (whatever it'll be for the extra weight) and be prepared that bit more if possible!
P.S. Stung me £40 for a new wheel this morning. There was a large nail stuck in the tyre - inside it and poking back out through a side wall. Therefore a repair wasn't possible. My four new tyres are now 3 'newish' tyres and a brand new one.. :-( That's £40 out of the service fund.. Car ownership eh?!
