Hey Guys [SMILING FACE WITH SMILING EYES]

Just a quick one here... Not really important or related to anything I'm doing but wanted to know of the tyre pumps that you guys have with your cars are built into the car (in the boot somewhere) or are separate and you need to plug them into the cig lighter?

Reason I ask is that we had to use one tonight on my old Corsa D and I found out that it's built into the boot side wall! You pop a cover off and run a long pipe from the boot to the tyre and then turn the engine on and it powers on!

With my astra it's all separate and I have to run a power cable from the cig lighter. Was wondering if this is still the case on the higher trim levels and older models?

Thanks

Yes the inflation kit is the same only one type I just got one
Silly question, will my Sri have this or not? I have the spare wheel! Not looked for anything like you're describing.

The VX one is in the loft I have a battery one so much easier.
They are found on cars that don't have the spare wheel but still there handy to have
Built in pump sounds like an unnecessary expense by vx
