...Basically, if anything happens to the tires on the front or the single car tire in the rear, you'll be towed. .... Sorry but that is very duff advice - see the warnings re towing the M3W! NEVER TOW IT! CHeck out last para pp 79 in Peter Dron's book... Sorry, my bad. Should have used "Hauled out by flatbed truck" Which has happened to me too many times.
What's your mileage? Who cares. Is it practical? See #1. What happens when it rains? You get wet.

Probably most experienced owners knew you meant that - had my first meeting with the dreaded flatbed last month. [They carted away a wheel for innertube replacement, so it was a bit of overkill... that time]

I wasted more time explaining to the auto club (AAA) that this was a 'car' and that it could be hauled and I would gladly show the driver how to do it and the tie down points.
In all cases (4) it was like reinventing the wheel. again.
Having the car dead on road was bad enough but dealing with dim bulbs on a flaky cell phone connection almost brought me to tears.

These compensator housing 46mm grommets are a snip at £5.00p and are essential to prevent gundge entering the housing.....
They are aviation spares and there are only 3 left from the first batch. Don't miss out.......
