Ah well. yes. that figures.. a factory Rosengart 6 cyl.....quite a different beast
back to the tyres issue: Blockleys show just about the same tread as Longstones but cost 25% less, so when buying five Longstones would cost me £ 505 ex VAT and Blockleys £ 375 that's a difference in the outlay I can put to good use elsewhere on the car.. So what's the justification for that price difference?? are Blockleys below par tyres made somewhere in an obscure factory in a low wages country or is Mr Longstone just buying in at the same factory and simply charging more for the same product?
