Default Spare wheels - to borrow please!

Anyone got a set of 4 sat around that I could borrow/hire for a week whilst mine are in Lepsons in LDN getting refurbed/repaired. D3 S8.

I was ok and going to do without the car for a week but forgot it’s Bank holiday weekend coming up and need it now!

Thanks all!!!

If you're desperate I've got my winter wheels and tyres which would presumably fit a D3 though may be a bit small? Set of 5 so you get a spare! South Bucks.

18" facelift Avus wheels with 245/45R18 Pirelli Sottozero Winter 240 Serie II tyres. Should be OK in spring weather though I wouldn't use them if it gets well over 20C.

e.g. Cruise control, NavPlus/TV, Bose, GSM, Xenons, Solar roof, Parking sensors, Alcantara/leather everywhere of course. (internal dimming mirror added later)

And before that a lot of Rover 800s, a few oddities, a lovely Triumph Dolomite 1850HL with Overdrive and way back in my schooldays an Austin Seven aka Mini 850!

Thanks everyone for the prompt replies. If there are options and I need to collect I am out & about tomorrow and Wednesday.
Tomorrow Chippenham and Wednesday Beaconsfield, starting and finishing in LDN both days, so can deviate from direct route if need be.
