Yesterday we had a mobile techinician service our 2 year old caravan which is a Lunar Delta TI.  As part of the service the tyres are removed and checked.

On checking the tyres it was discovered that there was a bung in one of the tyres indicating that at soem point in the past, the tyre had been punctured.  This obviously happened prior to purchase of the new caravan.

BTW Year of manufacture of the tyre was 2009 and caravan is a 2011 caravan?  Should tyres are are already two years old be fitted to a new caravan?

This also indicates that at the last service the caravan tyres were not checked properly.  Can a brand new caravan be sold with a "repaired" tyre?
