Sorry, not been on here for a while. Went for the Michelin CCs to replace my Vector 4 seasons. Much of a muchness although I suspect the CCs are slightly better in "not winter" conditions. We've not had any winter conditions since I got them, bloody typical. 😉

Weird. This'll be annoying then, 4 fitted 18" is a total of £390.32.

Gav, Costco have the CC2s on offer just now. I think I'm going for the CC2s as it is not to get over 7C here till Sunday, and then it drops again. It's not even December. 🤬 Will see how they perform in warmer temperatures and through the summer next year, if they warrant it.

🤣 For anyone following this I found the video below on Youtube very informative. Spoiler alert - The Cross Climate 2s are favourite.

CCs are probably favourite. Good to know they are not too much of a sacrifice in summer. Thanks!

It's the swapping and storage that puts me off. Sorry.

Yeah, I'm thinking PS4 or 5 and gamble on the weather. PS4S don't seem available in 18". Bad winter it's a choice between CC2s or Goodyear Vectors and sacrifice the summer performance. Hmmmm.

Hey all, It's time for a new set of tyres so I am considering options as winter is on it's way. I live in Scotland so snow is more of a possibility than down south but I'm not going down the hassle of full on winter/snow tyres that have to be replaced in the spring. Been there, done that on a Subaru. Works well but too much hassle/expense. PS4S is the default option but I'm wondering if a set of AW tyres should be considered, and if so, what model for 18s on an R MK7? Sorry if this has been covered elsewhere but I could find anything using the search feature. Cheers!

I got mine from Motorpoint and as said manufacturer's warranty is carried forward. Zero complaints. Got a reasonable trade in too. Great considering the old car was going to be an MOT financial write off. I researched to find the spec and colour that I wanted, then waited for one to come up. They do try to make up their profit losses by selling optional extras though. Be strong.

I had mine done a couple of weeks ago at home. Convenient and no issues whatsoever.

I’m cool, no animosity. I was just surprised at how much an R can go for. I guess I should be happy with the residuals. 😎 Carry on....

I'm positive that my car was 2 years old when I bought it, positive that I wanted manual, positive that I have Lapiz, positive that I hate leather seats, positive that I have no need for Satnav, positive that I have no need for heated seats as they aren't leather and positive that heated wing mirrors are standard. I am also positive that people have different likes and dislikes. Positive enough?

Manual. No extras. But none were mentioned in the OP either. £20k+ still seems excessive for a 5 year old regardless of factory options.

I really do hope that 64 was a typo! I paid less for a low mileage 15 plate 2-1/2 years ago.

That would be correct. I may change my mind when the temperature plummets.
