No Spare

[jrfttf]

LW Focus a mini spare can be optioned into the car, other than that enjoy the tyre slime kit!

Cars might come without spares, but they do come with free roadside assistance, which is probably what most people do nowadays.

I can tell you that this is exactly what most people do.

On the topic of the Fiestas, I think the main reason why they took it out of the WTs was "market research"- ie cheaper cost and more boot space preferred over the full sized spare. Pretty happy I snagged a WSanyway- even though it's still a 14" steelie space saver. Much prefer that over the $300 option yellow bicycle tyre in the WTs!!!

I got the same hint from Ford Sales about the ex's new Focus.Join the NRMA until after the 1st service,still going to get her 2 buy a spare,they put the well in for the spare just they don't want to fill it.She reckons the car got no guts but it only a week old and auto so I hope the performance improves-I haven't driven it yet so I don't know if it running properly or not
