  "lead": "Swindon grew up around the Great Western Railway works and now sits on the M4 corridor with some of the most famous roundabouts in the world. Compare tyres for your car, have them fitted at home in Old Town or West Swindon or at work, or choose a garage, and see your fitted price first.",
  "driving": [
    "The Magic Roundabout, five mini roundabouts arranged around a central one, is Swindon's best known junction and a fine test of anyone's lane discipline. It is typical of a town that relies heavily on roundabouts, and roundabout-heavy driving wears the front shoulders of tyres more than straight roads.",
    "Swindon sits between junctions 15 and 16 of the M4, and the A419 links it with Cirencester and the Cotswolds. A lot of local cars commute east to Reading and London or west to Bristol, so long motorway miles are a big part of their wear.",
    "Head south and you are onto the Marlborough Downs, with exposed roads and steep chalk escarpments near Barbury Castle. Swindon has no Clean Air Zone charge for drivers."
  ],
  "mobile": "Most of Swindon's estates have drives or parking bays, which makes mobile fitting straightforward, and the business parks along the M4 and the A419 have large car parks. Book your slot, give the address and any access notes, and the fitter brings your tyres, fits and balances them where the car is and takes the old set away.",
  "workshop": "If you would rather visit a garage, workshops on the network around Swindon show their distance and their fitted price before you book. A garage is the place for alignment if the steering pulls after a roundabout kerb strike.",
