It might be interesting & informative to find out what spares members carry round in their cars when out on a normal run.
Personally I don't have a garage, but do rent a Storeroom where I keep most of my larger tools and bigger Stag spares. In the car itself tools & spares I carry include :-
Tools - Bottle jack, wheelbrace, crow bar, jump leads, screwdrivers & spanners, Plug with wire attached for checking spark level, carb adjusting tool, box of assorted small tools & spares (allen keys, tyre pressure guage, radiator leak fixer, wire, feeler guage, fuses etc), tyre inflator, torch & compass, multi purpose knife, Stanley knife, insulating tape & scissors, magnetic pick-up tool, pliers, workshop manual, towing rope, etc.
Spares - WD40, Coil, Plugs, Air & Oil filters, Engine Oil, Anti-Freeze mix, Redex, lubricant oil, small fire extinguisher, assorted belts & hoses, brake fluid, power steering fluid, mat to lie on whilst underneath the car, grease & glues, STP, flasher unit, carb diaphragm, etc.
By law here I also have to carry - all the car's documents, 2 breakdown triangles, complete spare bulb set, first aid kit, and 2 fluorescent waistcoats.
