Cost of Puncture Repair
Anyone had a puncture repaired recently?
Just wondering what the going rate is these days - found a screw in one of my spare set so will be taking the wheel/tyre down in the boot to get it fixed so fortunately a repairer who doesn't know how to jack up a D3 isn't an issue on this occasion!

Ken, I reckon it's just inside the 'minor repair' area on the picture/diagram here

Oh, spend your 15 quid on a puncture repair kit, mostly with nails, screws etc just locate the hole with soapy water , remove nail etc then push plug in, cut excess off, pump up tire, dont even take wheel off.
Very easy, been useing them for years. Lots of us use them here in OZ
