Man kicks tyre looking at used car  

Barry Gatherround Local News

A man has kicked the tyre of a used car in a desperate attempt to look like he knows about them.

Curtis Shivers does not know anything about cars so when he was being shown the vehicle he decided to lightly tap a tyre with his right foot.

He told us, ‘I didn’t know what else to do. I’d already asked how many miles it had done after that I had nothing. The bloke selling it had just told me it it only had three owners and all of them were old women, which I’m pretty sure is bullshit but instead of saying that I just kicked that tyre.’

Car seller Dom wasn’t convinced either, ‘Happens every time mate. Don’t know what they think would happen, not gonna explode with a kick even if it is a shite car is it?’

Curtis didn’t buy the car as it still had a tape player, settling eventually for a new Vauxhall at a dealership, adding, ‘Solid tyres too.’
