Update:

Bristol and Cardiff have both come up with better offers than Swindon, despite them all being in the same group?! :roll:

Still waiting to hear back from Reading and Tewkesbury.

I'll then go back to Swindon to see if they'll match the best offer. :geek:

Thats pretty useful info. I think I won't be purchasing GT3 winters and may just resign myself to not using the car during the worst winter months.

WC - I've just been into Swindon and they quoted me £3k for 19" winter set wheels and tyres for my Macan GTS, including first year free at "their hotel" - anybody have any idea if this is a good deal or not?

That's on a par with what they offered me.

I emailed the OPCs in Bristol, Tewkesbury, Cardiff & Reading.

All but Reading have replied.

Cardiff's is the best offer so far...

I have a pristine set as a result of my GTS sale. PM me if you are interested. Happy to deliver to a good home and probably less than half price.

Looks like I'm going with Tewkesbury. The best offer was from Cardiff. Tewkesbury matched this, and they are somewhat closer for me. 10% PCGB discount on wheels, winter tyres and wheel centre covers. No storage charge. £65 per swap-over from Year 2 onwards.

Reading never replied. :roll:

That's very poor from Reading and I'm surprised as I've always had excellent service from them.

Agreed. I gather that the Tyre Hotel is at Reading, so maybe they guessed that I was shopping around, and knew that other OPCs would undercut them...? :? :roll:

Hi Steve. Silverstone would be a long trek for me, even if they matched the quote from Tewkesbury. As I've bought two cars from Tewkesbury already, and they're only 45 minutes away, they seem like a good solution. :)

Cheers,

Simon
