Just got a quote from ATS in Kingsbridge for 4 Avon ZV7 at £79.49 a corner balanced and disposal.
Or Goodyear Efficient Grip Performance 2 on offer at £73.99 a corner all in. Fitted to Heathers GTI and they are very good.
Yoko's at £58.49 a corner all in.
Pirelli Centuratos P7 at £89.99 a corner.
So they are very competitive and a great bunch of guys at our local branch, I'll go for the Goodyears probably.

Hello MATTMOG. What a coincidence. Same happened yesterday to my 2019 Plus4 (Traditional) after 41000km. Reservoir looks exactly as yours. Brown scratch where fluid touches the mounting bracket. Intermediate solution with max level tape. ![[Linked Image]](https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53971361606_acfe578322_w.jpg) 1000015787 by Werni Wehrli, auf Flickr ![[Linked Image]](https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53971361596_cf6f14fabe_w.jpg) 1000015794 by Werni Wehrli, auf Flickr Take a look at this one..

Re the washer bottle: I replaced mine a couple of years ago. If you want to save a few ££'s, they are often listed on Ebay (search "MG TF washer bottle"), here's an example https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/395035491634

So they are very competitive and a great bunch of guys at our local branch, I'll go for the Goodyear's probably. Anything new will be better than whatever you've had on your car for a couple of years or more Richard. You need to compare like for like though when considering prices. ZV7's have been around for a while. The Goodyears look better. You pays your money............ https://www.thetyrelab.com/vs//cont...7/goodyear-efficient-grip-performance-2/

Ran ZV7s on several cars. Very happy with them. Certainly a lot better than the cheap "Chinese" ones

Yes Richard I had almost made my mind up to go Goodyear and your tables have helped, thanks. Only just found the site myself Richard. You can add several tyres of differing brands to get a direct comparison. Graham I too was a fan of the all round benefits of Avon ZV7 tyres, still fitted by MMC to new CX4's I believe, we also have them on our Minl. I guess tyre technology is a dynamic though with a slow but steady improvement by popular brands to stay ahead as the comparisons prove. Also ZV7's do harden noticeably with age as reported elsewhere on TM and given the very slow rate of wear on Mogs due to weight and low average mileage, they do need replacing when maybe only half worn. Having had a couple of incidents recently whilst accelerating in a straight line on just slightly damp roads the decision to replace was made for me.

So they are very competitive and a great bunch of guys at our local branch, I'll go for the Goodyears probably. I have the Good Year Efficient Grip and they have been great. Will need to change them next year due to age but plenty of tread left. I will replace like for like.
