Punture

I had a punture on friday night caused by a screw, i called out my local recovery agents and they managed to do a tech repair at the side of the road, I popped down to the tyre place yesturday morning and they tested the tyre to see if all is good and result it is other wise i would of had to get a new michelin pilot sport at £250.00

Proper repairs are usually good enough to see the tyre out I think. I thought it was only if you'd used a can of foam or had run flats that the tyre needed replacing. I wouldn't worry about it, they'll love your car in France, so if you do need to sort a tyre out over there, they'll probably charge you less than the robbing gits do over here!
 
yeha a repair is good enough like arran said maybe get it sorted (new tyre) across the border
