The van is a tyre workshop on wheels. In Thame it parks beside your car, whether at Thame Leisure Centre or outside your house, and the whole job happens right there.
Towing a car with a ruined tyre across rural Oxfordshire to a garage costs a day and can damage the wheel further. Around Thame the distances make it worse: from Kingsey or Sydenham the nearest workshop is a long drive, and a car with a torn tyre cannot make it. Bringing the equipment to the car is simply more sensible, whether it sits in the leisure centre car park or on a farm track.
Inside the van sit a tyre changer, a Thame-ready stock of popular sizes, a balancing machine, a compressor and a torque wrench. The fitter removes the wheel, breaks the bead, seats the replacement, spins the wheel true on the balancer and refits it with the nuts torqued to spec, all at the kerb. Say which size you need and whether the Moreton car is on a drive or a public bay; the price is agreed on the call.
The van needs room alongside the car: Thame Leisure Centre car park, a broad street in Moreton, a Kingsey farm yard or the Cattle Market car park away from the stalls. A tight lane verge with no space for the van will not work.

The job needs space more than anything. A metre or so clear beside the damaged wheel lets the fitter kneel and lift the tyre off, and firm, level ground keeps the jack steady. Thame's broad streets have no permit schemes, so outside a Moreton house usually works without blocking a neighbour's drive. The car never has to move, which matters with a torn tyre. The Thame Leisure Centre car park and a Towersey farm yard also give the van room.
A workshop on wheels to your Thame kerb: call with the size and the car stays put.
