    You're either after a wagon or you are not. But just like here, in the UK wagon appreciation is falling off as fast as soft-roader is rising. Over there a sexy new SUV was typically more expensive than a wagon, so the alltrack reviews would remind people that the alltrack wagon is so many more pounds that you're into desirable SUV territory.

    But re fitting the spare tyre, what about the tyre monitoring system?
    Providing only a short trip to nearest tyre station, OK BUT look out for computer
    generated warnings due to small diferance's of tyre external diameter.

    you reset the tire warning system after you fit the space saver to the rear (swapping with front if necessary), then it will warn if there is yet another puncture because you reset it to get used to the new rates of rotation. Just like you can set it for uneven psi..

    Given its width and speed rating I'd not travel slowly to the nearest tire station, I'd treat it pretty much as a full sized spare.
