took my MH for it's CT (French mot) last Tuesday. Was chuffed when it passed. However the tester pointed out that the rear tyres were made in 2000. He said he would not recommend any long motorway trips. I have seen threads on fun on this subject so today I have replaced them. The MH is a 2001 model, so I assume these are the original tyres. It has done 84000 kms and is front wheel drive,but the tyres I took off still had 5mm tread.
This seems to bear out something I have thought for a long time. Are the tyres fitted to new vehicles longer wearing than any you can buy from a tyre centre?
I also bought a 9 year old Berlingo with the original battery. Does the same apply with batteries?
I know some funsters are in the motor trade so perhaps they can answer my question
