After my trouble with my Tyres (another thread) I decided to check the spare.
What a kuffle! I kid you not!
First of all I had to squeeze under the towbar, (not exactly slimmer of the year!) then the waste water tank, only to find some dingbat had placed the tyre in the carrier with the valve to the front and at the top!:Angry:
So! decided to lower the carrier and turn the spare, easy peezee? The Fella that designed that set up deserves to have a rubber ring placed around his family jewels!:Angry:
After emptying the locker above, to get to the release nuts, then finding one under the heating ducting, then having to put up with the utterly useless extension, AAAAARRRGGGGGHHHHH!!!!!
End result? decided to remove spare entirely from underneath, after visulising having to do it on the M5, during a thunderstorm, and place it in the locker. (Yes! we are with Green Flag, but humanity to man etc!)
With the powers to be releasing mental hospital patients early, I guess one of them has found a job designing areas to carry spare tyres under M/Hs:Angry:
