Went to kwik-fit walthamstow with a puncture in my front tyre. 70 plate car, new tyres and a very small circular puncture at 90 degrees to the tyre tread. The technician (that's a joke) took the tyre off and rolled it over to me and said "look" as if that was meant to convince me, "you need a new tyre". I said, are you telling me it can be repaired, yes or no? He refused to answer saying, " it might leak". Told him to repair it. He begrudgingly did so. He then reinflated the tyre, sprayed the puncture spot with some soapy foam and called me over. Look, it's leaking" he said as he pulled on the end of the untrimmed plug he had just pulled through the hole. In fact he had to distort the tyre rubber to make it do so. "You need a new tyre" he persisted. To shorten the story, the technician and the manger are crooks in my honest opinion and think that their customers are fools with no knowledge or skills. I left in disgust and the puncture repair is fine, pressure holding at 35 psi and have been driving on it for 5 days now. DO NOT USE KWIKFIT.
