Picked up the two new tyres today and put them on the front. The Falkens are thinner than the Colways so might cut the mud a bit better but will have a smaller footprint.
Vern had a listen to my wheel bearings and declared them serviceable for much longer yet, so the MOT man may just have been touting for some business. He didn't know what he was taking on though as the rears are really difficult to do and according to Vern, sometimes impossible. Couple of chaps on the international skoda forum seem to have mastered the technique though. I have decided to work on the 'if it aint broke don't fix it' principle and leave them for now. Sorted out all the split pins etc so the front looks a whole lot healthier and safer now.
Need to start sorting out for the Lands End soon, should get the route and final instructions in the next week or so.
