Hi I can add myself to this - never knew lost/loose wheels was such a
common thing, triumph 2.5 PI driving into Shrewsbury in the '80s
hear/feel strange noise/feel stop get out to discover all wheel nuts
missing from one wheel, no tools knocked on door of nearby house
disturbed a couple of youngsters getting intimate but they found some
tools in the cellar fro me soI took one nut off each of the other
wheels as a get me home, I won't say who's fault it was but he shoots
mostly fuji now. (pal disturbed him when swappimg wheels around).
And I was discussing cars with my boss last week and he said that that
morning he had a similar thing but caught it before the nuts totally
came off - he said a few stern words to the garage that had just swapped
his tyres over to summer ones.
IanW - who has also signed official secrets act but can't say why :-)
