I'd check very carefully that it hasn't damaged the alloy, if they tightened it right up it may have left some marksThe End

Yes, I am booked in for 9.
Spare wheel upside down! that takes some doing. Be careful and check carefully that the hook device has not scratched or damaged the alloy, if it has, get them to give you a new wheel.
If I were you, I would insist on seeing the wheel before they put it back. Knowing them they would not tell you if it was scratched, and would deny responsibility when you found out.

Mines in tomorrow for 45K service and enhancement... be interesting to see whats changed handling wise since my last update a few months ago. She feels too bouncy to me and not nearly as tight as she was... mmm maybe rephrasing that would be a good idea... naaah !

I'm feeling left out now May be I should drop in and discuss when they're going to have attempt number 3 to fix the 75mph cruise/turbo pop on mine and see if they're going to call me for enhancement work...Steve N | 21MY Defender | 08MY Discovery 3 (history) | 06MY Discovery 3 (ancient history)

I think that if three owners turn up and start to complain they would have to think about some customer service.

Must have missed you goldman, but I saw your car, how the hell can they fit a wheel like that?? and that hook was well dug into the alloy
They must have been short staffed and got the girl on recpetion to fit it eh?
This sort of thing really worries me about GS, seriously, its extremely poor and someone should get their ass severely kicked over this.
