5L Water is always good, just in case or at least a container to fill up

Holts tyreweld. I always keep a can in the boot. I just had to use it for the first time last week. I picked up a rear wheel puncture on the 928 while I was in the middle of nowhere on the Isle of Mull. The stuff worked great and I managed to drive carefully for about 70 miles along some pretty poor single track roads to a garage that could repair my tyre.
