i would guess that any decent supplier would give a discount on tyres for any car if we all bought and he was selling say 20 sets.

I have a mate who runs a garage in Glasgow. He might be able to do a deal on a group buy.

So are the requirements as per Sanjoy's post?

Let me know if you want me to get a quote

Cheers

Dom, that would be ace but the age-old problem is 'LTS' spec. Yokohama will not (as far as I'm aware) supply tyres to non-lotus dealers :?

By all means, ask him to give it a bash, but I wouldn't hold out much hope.

Cheers,

Greg
