I've just picked up a 3rd puncture in a year, anyone else had similar problems? I haven't had punctures in other cars in years, is it down to the width of the tyres or just bad luck?
 
I went through a phase where it was one per month
 
Bad luck or spiteful neighbours.
 
Bad luck I think, the neighbours are fine and include other Porsche owners. The latest damage was from a large rusty screw, picked up during a trip to Swansea. I was very lucky to find the tyre flat the next morning, could have cost me a wheel and tyre!
 
I had 3 or 4 when we moved to the current place- for whatever reason my tyres picked up every screw, nail and other lump of sharp metal which all the other cars tyres had ignored. The other vehicles had skinny, rock hard ditch finders mind, which might explain why my wider, softer tyres were sweeping the road.
 
I bought 4 new PS2's last year and picked up a puncture 5 min after driving out of the garage...so I should have said I bought 5 new PS2s last year :frustrated:
