Decided I'd go to Stirling to see a movie late last night.
Bearing in mind not had the car for even a month yet.......and 'lost' the in built Sat Nav I had in my previous S, before I traded for the Evoque (long story if you don't already know!).
Anyway..........had phone on daft Halfrauds vent holder, turns out way I sit in car, the steering wheel covers quarter of the phone screen.......this being the first time I'd actually uses it for Sat Nav.
Weather was chucking it down, and ended up with at least 7 roadworks on the way, course all traffic lights were at red.
Roads seemed to be either closed or if they were down to one lane it seemed like it was three quarters of a lane the way the cones were!
I missed a turn on a roundabout due to not seeing the phone screen properly, judging the reduced lane width, and the glare of oncoming cars too..........turned round and headed back the way.
All was good until........BANG..........I pulled over as soon as I could.
The pic is the result :
Walked back to where I heard the bang and it was the smallest 'island' you ever saw in your life.......which I didnt see due to concentrating on everything else, and being late for the movie anyway.
Just drove back home as I wasnt anywhere near the cinema anyway :(
Any idea on how much I'm looking at for a repair, and who with?
Can guess I can be thankful that theres no air coming out the tyre, the 'tyre pressure monitor' seems to confirm that, so tyre damage just seems superficial.
Thanks
