Nitrogen in tyres

The Kwik Fit website says I can have my new tyres filled with nitrogen for £1 extra.

Why should I want that?

Since John Dunlop invented the pneumatic tyre in 1888 compressed air has been perfectly adequate for inflating your everyday car tyres.

It's just another con from Kwik-Fit to lighten your wallet. What do you do if your tyres need blowing up? Go back to Kwik-Fit and shell out another £4.00
