Spotted an elderly neighbour’s tyre was flat ( and it turned out no spare in the boot). Combined with a shopping trip could not find our usual local tyre repair places / garages open ( naively thought they might be ranked same as petrol stations for being open during the lockdown).

Does anyone know of either a tyre repair place in the Girne area ( Ozankoy / Bellapais / Catalkoy also good)? Or a mobile service that calls at home?

Guessing some must be operating if only to service Belediye/ Police / Ambulance vehicles. Hope you can assist?

I live in Ozankoy and have a hand held machine which will pump the tyre up, obviously no good if its a big puncture, but it may you from A to B if its any help? 0533 876 2204

Unfortunately Pitstop only show their land line number but they are updating their facebook page so maybe that is the best way to contact them.

Pitstop number ,maybe 0392-824-55-64 or 0533-8620703.

Thanks for the responses guys ( and the offer of a pump ‘Molly the cat’). Pit stop is closed by the way.

Luckily a mobile repair van was tracked down, arrived here about 10 mins ago and completed the repair. When my neighbour passes me the contact info I will post it

Excellent.

Mobile tyre repair van can be contacted by ringing:
0542 852 9966 - hope this helps

No help to those out east, I know. However, for those out west, I see the tyre shop opposite Kelebek eczacı is open most days whenever I drive past during this difficult period.

Thank you for the numbers, I had incorrectly assumed even if Pitstop, the garage was shut they would of had their mobile units on call,

The guy opposite the Wild Duck also has a mobile unit

Probably a daft question but did the repair guy actually repair the puncture or just put air in the tyre?

TML

Quote "and he completed the repair" sounds like a puncture to me?

The mobile guy had the same set up inside his large van that you find in the garage - hydraulic machine to remove tyre and replace on wheel. Full repair facility ( but no spare tyres). V professional but you pay a premium for doorstep service ( 70 tl yesterday). Worth it though.

Hi Jonesy299,

"but you pay a premium for doorstep service ( 70 tl yesterday)" app £8.40 @ todays rate.

70Tl is not too bad for doorstep service. app £8.40 @ todays rate.
Changing a tyre (if you had one) in this weather,
without working/old clothes on, would be a nuisance.
