Car Forum / Land Rover Cars / April 2007tyre kickers
I saw the following advert: Landrover Defender 90 300tdi truck cab. Ebbwvale, Gwent Excellent vehicle, great looker, no dents, mechanically good chassis and bulkhead good, resprayed in 2k paint in Landrover portabello red. Loads of stainless steel extras. New back exhaust, new servo, new vacume pump, new alloys and tyres. Real head turner. 10 months mot, taxed £6,000 ono. No tyre kickers. My question is this: It all looks good, but I am worried about the lack of "tyre kickers". Is the car road legal without them? Can one buy them separately? What exactly do they do? > My question is this: It all looks good, but I am worried about the > lack of "tyre kickers". Is the car road legal without them? Can one > buy them separately? What exactly do they do? "Tyre kickers" are similar to "canvassers", it's not illegal to drive without them, but it is more productive. Sadly it's not illegal to drive over them, but this is surely just a matter of time. If you want any tyre kickers or canvassers, put an advert in the local paper for anything at all to get canvassers, or a car to get tyre kickers.  SignatureBlast off and strike the evil Bydo empire!

I think they should be a brand of waffle boards. :-) Lee D > I saw the following advert: > [quoted text clipped - 8 lines] > lack of "tyre kickers". Is the car road legal without them?

Also known as Total World Authority Talkers, they will have intimate knowlegde of every car ever built, despite only ever having "owned" whatever car the company provides. While not actually compulsory, they are highly reccommended as they are far more au fait with automotive design that any engineer working in the industry, have far better knowledge of MOT regulations than any Tester and are more than happy to assist the Police with any queries regarding motoring law. They can be installed in your vehicle semi-permenently, but can be rather irritating unless secured with gaffer tape.

Often one and the same, as most models are switchable between any subject. These more advanced models can be identifed by system quirk that introduces golf into any subject. > Derek Richard Signaturewww.beamends-lrspares.co.uk sales@beamends-lrspares.co.uk I have become... comfortably numb > They can be installed in your vehicle semi-permenently, > but can be rather irritating unless secured with gaffer > tape.
