Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Got the colour of mine wrong and can't tell me the tyre size...Originally posted by TimberWolf View Post
We've found your vehicle but unfortunately we don't have any details of your tyres.
This may be because your vehicle is:
A commercial vehicle (e.g. a truck or a taxi)
A motorbike (please use the Motorbike Search on the home page)
First registered prior to 1983
An import
Just one we don't know about!
If this is the case, please use our Tyre Size Search tool:

Bolton issued regs are BN and WH. That never comes up in Trivial Pursuits.....Comment
