in the van i have a spare tyre, fire extinguisher, 2 RC cars, RC fuel, toolbox full of RC parts/tools, 3 broken RC shells, an old windscreen shade, an old pair of gumboots from work, a couple of rags, a pair of womens thongs (the feet type), an empty smoke packet, coke bottle 1/4 full with water, some pamphlets and other rubbish and probably some other junk under all that.
in the Fairlane there is 2 boxes with various things like oils, belts plugs, and general things like that, and probably 50 odd CDs as well along with the usual spare wheel. Last edited by Kryton; 24-08-2005 at 10:33 PM. |

A dead body - but don't tell anyone.

I used to have:
* 3x scissor jacks * spare tyre * tyre iron and wheel brace * jumper cables * empty fuel can * manual fuel syphoning pump But since taking it to a mechanic for a RWC, 2 of the 3 scissor jacks and the wheel brace have vanished... :( Oh, and before anybody asks, I had 3 scissor jacks in there because I wouldn't use just one if I need to jack up the car, I'd rather use at least two so there isn't so much weight on each one. Not happy that I now need to buy a new wheel brace and replace the jacks, one of the jacks wasn't mine and I had borrowed off my brother and had planned on giving it back to him in a few weeks...

Hell, i don;t even keep anything in my center console or ashtray!

The only things in my boot are the 80 Litre gas tank and my trusty toolbox. Everything else just gets chucked in my console, glovebox and ashtray.
