thanks guys! a used one is sufficient, if in normal condition @Dominic: pick up would be difficult from Germany, so how much is shipping?
Looking at Parcel to go if I ship without the tyre it is £20 plus Vat so £24ish with the tyre looks like a £3 pounds extra. That is with UPS 3 day plus service. I will cover all the edges with bubble wrap anyway to protect.
Sorry Dominic, but I think I will buy a new one
