In the van, angle grinder, welder, A skipful of replacement panels and the best part of 4 broken engines- however it's not on the road yet.

In the beetle, I think I have some points in there somewhere but no tools to change them! Spare tyre, jack and 19mm socket, that's all. Been running 70 miles a day for the last 2 years without breaking down once*



*at least, not to a complete stop! stopped turning left for a while though.
 
Should be made a sticky,

along with,

What camping gear do I need - (one I'll be looking into soon :D )
