Well it was bound to happen!

I filtered off a dual carriageway onto the exit slip road and whilst still doing about 40 mph, BANG....another bloody pot hole has appeared since last Wednesday when I was last there!

I stopped to have a look, no damage to the alloy wheel, but a big bulge in the sidewall of my nearside front Pirelli PZero 255/35 R20 97W tyre...bugger!

Car has only done 8k miles and the tyres are hardly worn so I'm only going to replace the damaged one with a direct replacement Pirelli which is going to cost me around £153!!

Now to do battle with East Staffordshire Council but not holding my breath!
