I was cruising back from Brecon Beacons on the M4 when I hit a big f*&^!"ng pothole at 69MPH. The car (Cupra 300) beeped and the tyre pressure warning came on.
I thought that was it and i had a puncture or buckled the wheel so I pulled over to investigate ... all seemed good, no visual damage ... so afer ranting for 5 minutes I moved on.
Car seemed to be driving ok, not pulling left/right, no vibrations (tested it at 70+++, admittedly floored it an might have went over a bit), steering wheel centred.
Couple of questions
- is it worth taking it to a garage?
- where?
- can I claim back it back the garge costs? ( I only have the dashcam footage )
ps: sorry in advance but I'm going to be a middle lane hogger from now on, the left lane's are pothole infested death traps now days

Get it checked over by a competent mechanic.
I hit a pothole in mine and it cracked the lower control arm. No issues for a few hundred miles, and then it started to drive like a bag of piss. I had to get it recovered by SEAT Roadside Assistance because it was dangerous.
