£68 from mytyres ...
But for the extra few £££ the GY F1's are much better.
Some Nangkangs listed for £57, but either of these would make his scrabble wagon even more SCRABBLE, with even more understeer ...

If he can afford a leon cupra with 225BHP .. then he should be prepared to pay £88 for GY F1's or swap it for a 1.2 Ibiza, or maybe he like ditches ??

I bought a set of 712 for my Rover 220 run about, for the money an excellent tyre no nasty suprises in the wet or dry.
