    Tyre Pump

    Hello folks

    I'm looking for a good electronic tyre pump. I used to have a magnificent little Michelin one which was accurate to +/-0.05psi and shut off automatically at the right pressure. Having foolishly given that away I bought a rubbish Halfords one which I don't really want to use on the R8 (it's not very accurate).

    Any recommendations? I haven't actually looked at using the compressor supplied with the car - is it appropriate for frequent use?

    Thanks

    And whilst I'm at it... what tyre pressures do people use? For some reason I don't have the little card on the door / in the filler cap.

    Thanks. I should have mentioned that it's a late 2009 V8. I wonder whether tyre pressures vary by country...?

    I'm a goon - the card is in the door frame and shows the same pressures. Thanks for help.
