Run flat tyres

My wife and I so much agree with your belief that "run flat" tyres might well save our lives but can find no input on which manufacturers other than BMW offer them on new vehicles, could you please advise of any others as we are "in the market" for a replacement for our Freelander 2.

You're right. They aren't common on other makes and models and they are not universal on BMWs. The most obvious replacement for your Freelander 2 is a BMW F25 X3, tested and video tested here: www.honestjohn.co.uk/road-tests/bmw/bmw-x3-f25-201.../
