Over & above the tyreweld & BMW tool kit, interested to hear what ‘bare essentials’ others carry.

Sunnies
Magnetic phone mount
Dual USB charger
iPhone cable
TomTom
Micro fibre cloth & sponge for interior windows
Tyreweld
Variable parking change, depends if Mrs J acquires it
Mechanic gloves
Yellow tabard
Picnic Rug

What’s NOT on the list is:
- spacesaver
- spare bulbs
- car jack
- brace bar
- general tool kit

So peeps, other than a glock, what you carrying

When I had mine it was condoms, amazing how many uses you can put them too.

Funny though

My list:
BT receiver for streaming Planet Rock
Shades
His & hers caps (baseball style) brilliant with roof down when the sun is up
Reading glasses, just in case (I'm old you know

)
Tyre weld & compressor kit

Bit boring really compared to some

Fuel, a spare wheel, and an aux cable. Nothing else needed.
