Tire fail

My tire blew a while back and - because it happened as I was coming down my street - I hobbled home pretty much on the rim and so my car sat growing cobwebs.

I finally need to get my A into G because some friends think my car might be nice to do a New Year's trip in but, lo, I have run into a bit of a pickle.

My car is stuck at my place because the tire is blown.

I need to repair the tire.

To repair the tire I thought I could either lug it in a friends car to the tire repair shop or change to the emergency tire and get it there myself.

So I jack up my car, whip out the tire-changing-apparatus, and discover that I can't undo the nuts on my mags!

I have the parts that were sold with the car sitting in my boot space but the nut-undoer-thingy is probably the ORIGINAL part and not the part designed to undo my mags!

So I need to take the car to Mag & Turbo so that they can undo it with their universal keys but I can't take the car there because I need to change the tire but I can't change the tire because I don't have a universal key.

*sigh*
