At approximately 18:45 on the 11/10/23 my wife was hit the pot hole which blew the tyre. Had to pull in and fit spare tyre and have a replacement fitted the following day at a cost of £111.83.

Returned to the scene at the earliest opportunity to take photos of pot hole (to dark and unsafe to take photos at the time)
