Picked up a replacement fuel filler flap and some trim clips, however on the way to MGR services in Blaydon, some absolute clown ** in an Astra heading in the opposite direction to me decided not only to overtake a car on a zebra crossing, but then proceeded to head the wrong way around a roundabout, forcing me up onto the kerb.

The result is two damaged 11 spokes, one destroyed 6mm Dunlop, and one of my new Continentals fitted for the MOT less than three weeks ago.

To say I'm annoyed is an understatement, I'll remove the tyres tomorrow and mount the wheels in the balancer to see if they're buckled

And the day started so promisingly with the 75 safely dropped off at the paintshop
