Tyre trouble in Marston?

Marston has two halves and one postcode that mostly covers both: Old Marston around Marsh Lane, New Marston along Marston Road, almost all of it OX3 with a sliver of OX2 towards Summertown. The damage here usually arrives on the B4495, either Marston Ferry Road or Cherwell Drive, and it is normally a kerbed sidewall rather than a nail. Read the numbers off the tyre wall, give the house number, and the fitter sets out with that size already aboard.

What we do in Marston
Tyre work in Marston.
Four jobs cover nearly everything Marston rings about. A new tyre bought to the size stamped into the old sidewall, then mounted, spun up for balance and torqued down where the car stands. A puncture pulled off the rim and sealed with an internal patch to BS AU 159, allowed only where the hole lands within the tread band and is narrow enough. A tyre gone completely gets swapped, the rim examined before the wheel goes back. And a wheel nut with no key freed and taken off. Somebody is on the line all night and every weekend.
Repairs follow BS AU 159; the legal minimum tread is 1.6mm (GOV.UK).
Where we work in Marston
Drives, bays and car parks.
Drives do most of the work in Marston, and a car with a flat can stay exactly where it stopped on one. Off the drive, the residential streets around Marsh Lane and Marston Road are where the van pulls in, so say whether the space is a resident permit bay or a free one, because much of the parking inside the Oxford ring road is controlled. The B4495 itself will not do, Marston Ferry Road and Cherwell Drive both, where traffic passes too close to kneel at a wheel. No public car park exists here.
Almost every call is from a house, because houses are nearly all there is: the older streets of the Old Marston side, the terraces of New Marston, and the closes towards The Lakes and Wadham Park. A drive is the usual working surface and the best one. Public parking does not exist in this village at all, and the single car park anybody lists belongs to a pub, so it is the landlord's to offer and nobody else's to promise. The A40 Northern By-pass Road lies a few hundred yards off, and nobody should be jacking a car up at its edge; leave it at the next roundabout and ring from a side street. Oxford's Zero Emission Zone sits on a small number of streets in the city centre and does not extend to OX3.
Nights and weekends
24 hours in Marston.
Marston is residential through and through, so the late calls are people coming home to OX3 and meeting a flat tyre on the drive, or somebody due out before dawn who would rather not discover it then. Ring or message 07473 720871 whenever you spot it. Nothing is ordered or begun until you know what the tyre costs and what the visit costs.

Marston FAQs
Questions from Marston.
Which Marston does this page mean?
The Oxfordshire one, inside the city of Oxford, made up of Old Marston and New Marston in OX3 with a little OX2 on the Summertown edge. Nine places in Britain share the name. This is the one beside the A40 Northern By-pass Road.
Where can you meet me in Marston if I have no driveway?
Nowhere public, which is the honest answer. The single car park anybody lists belongs to a pub and is the landlord's to lend. Jobs without a drive happen at the kerb on a side street off Marsh Lane, so tell the fitter what the parking rules are where the car sits.
I clipped a kerb on Marston Ferry Road and the sidewall has swollen. Is that repairable?
A swelling like that means the cords underneath have parted, and no repair standard permits mending a sidewall. That tyre gets replaced. Send a photo and the size off the wall, and the fitter carries the match out to Cherwell Drive or wherever the car ended up.
Does the Oxford Zero Emission Zone apply in Marston?
It does not reach out here. That zone is a small pilot on streets in the city centre, most of them already shut to general traffic, and OX3 lies well outside it. Nor does a charge attach to a parked car: nothing is payable while a wheel is off.
